1658 64th Street, Brooklyn, NY 11204

The two-story, four-unit New Law Tenement building at 1658 64th Street in Borough Park, owned by Jian Xin Li, has experienced several notable events over the past few years that warrant attention. Most recently, in October 2023, there were rodent-related complaints investigated by the Department of Health and Mental Hygiene, with one inspection passing with only minor violations, while another case of rat sighting was noted.

The building underwent rodent inspection in October 2023 that resulted in a passing grade. The property has maintained a clean record regarding bedbug infestations, with all annual reports from 2019 through 2024 showing zero infested units.

Of significant concern is the building's history of illegal conversion complaints, with five such complaints filed between 2018 and 2021, all resulting in inspectors being unable to gain access during their final attempts. Additionally, there was an Environmental Control Board violation in 2018 related to failure to comply with a commissioner's order, which incurred an $800 penalty although this appears to have been resolved. A housing maintenance code violation was recorded in February 2022 regarding the failure to file an annual bedbug report, though this may have been rectified as subsequent reports show compliance.
