1214 48th Street, Brooklyn, NY 11219

The three-story residential building at 1214 48th Street in Borough Park, owned by Toby Pal, has been under consistent scrutiny for bedbug reporting compliance over the past four years, with open Housing Maintenance Code violations recorded in 2024, 2023, 2022, and 2021, all relating to the failure to file annual bedbug reports as required by HPD regulations. These ongoing violations, which have persisted into 2024, represent significant regulatory non-compliance.

Additionally, there was a building-related issue in late 2021 concerning sidewalk modifications, specifically an illegal curb cut approximately 9 linear feet in length. This violation was documented through a Department of Buildings (DOB) complaint on November 4, 2021, which was subsequently inspected and confirmed on November 29, 2021, though this particular environmental control board violation was resolved with no penalties imposed.

The building, constructed in 1987, contains three units and was classified as "HEREAFTER ERECTED CLASS A" at the time of construction. While the curb cut incident represents a one-time issue that was resolved, the persistent bedbug reporting violations over multiple years, with the most recent continuing into 2024, suggest ongoing regulatory compliance challenges. It's worth noting that all violations to date have been classified as "Class A," indicating they are related to required administrative actions rather than immediate safety concerns.
