831 52nd Street, Brooklyn, NY 11220

This three-story, six-unit New Law tenement building located at 831 52nd Street in Borough Park was constructed in 1920 and is currently owned by Chiching Huey. The building has experienced several significant maintenance issues over the past few years, with the most notable incidents occurring in May 2022, when both window guard safety concerns and mold problems were reported and subsequently inspected by the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD).

These issues were officially classified as emergencies, though no violations were ultimately issued in either case. An earlier emergency incident involving a complete loss of heat and hot water throughout the building was reported in November 2019, but residents indicated that service had been restored by the time HPD arrived to investigate. In May 2022, the building received two Class C violations related to lead-based paint hazard notifications and record-keeping requirements, though these violations were subsequently closed.

Notably, the building has maintained an impressive record of pest control, with no bedbug infestations reported across any units since the 2018-2019 reporting period. The property has undergone regular bedbug reporting annually, from 2019 through 2024, showing consistent compliance with reporting requirements and confirming that no units have experienced infestations, eradications, or re-infestations during this period. The most recent bedbug report (December 2024) indicates zero affected units for the reporting period of November 2023 to October 2024, continuing the property's clean pest control record.
