4224 13th Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11219

The three-story, two-unit residential building at 4224 13th Avenue in Borough Park, owned by Shimshon Fleischer, has an established history of regulatory compliance issues that merit attention. Most notably, there is an ongoing pattern of non-compliance with the Housing Maintenance Code's annual bedbug reporting requirements, with violations recorded in 2022, 2023, and most recently in April 2024, where the building failed to submit the required annual bedbug report to HPD.

This represents a persistent oversight regarding infestation monitoring and reporting protocols. The building's bedbug reporting period from November 2019 to October 2020 showed no infested, eradicated, or re-infested units, though it should be noted that the reporting deadline occurred approximately nine months prior to the first recorded bedbug violation.

Additionally, there is an active Department of Buildings violation from November 2019 regarding the failure to file the annual boiler inspection report for 2017, which remains unresolved as of the most recent data available. While the age of the building (constructed in 1930) and its classification as a New Law Tenement suggest it has been subject to various regulatory frameworks over the years, the most pressing concerns appear to be the recurring bedbug reporting violations and the outstanding boiler inspection issue. The building's documented history shows consistent non-compliance with these two specific regulatory requirements, with the bedbug reporting violations occurring on the same day each year between 2021 and 2024, indicating a potential systemic issue with regulatory adherence.
