1225 50Th Street, Brooklyn, NY 11219

1225 50th Street is a 4-story, 3-unit residential building located in Borough Park, constructed in 1920 and currently owned by Ben Wachsman. The building has experienced several important events over the past decades, with particular focus on recent years.

There are ongoing concerns about bedbug reporting compliance, with violations noted in 2021, 2022, and most recently in March 2023, though subsequent filings through 2024 show no reported infestations or eradications. A significant construction period occurred in 2019, leading to multiple Environmental Control Board (ECB) violations totaling approximately $19,187, including issues with construction documents, worker training compliance, and inadequate housekeeping, though most of these were subsequently resolved. The building's roof was constructed beyond the approved plans, as noted in a 2022 active ECB violation with a penalty of $1,250.

Historical records show an open violation from 1988 regarding fire egress and window security issues, while more recent Department of Buildings (DOB) complaints in 2022 and 2019 primarily involved construction-related matters, including a stop work order that was fully rescinded. The property has maintained regular bedbug reporting since 2020, with the most recent filings showing no affected units. Multiple permits were issued between 2019 and 2020 for various work types including plumbing, electrical, and alteration projects, indicating active maintenance and improvement efforts at the property.
