853 56th Street, Brooklyn, NY 11220
The 2-story, 4-unit New Law Tenement building at 853 56th Street in Borough Park, built in 1924 and currently owned by Kong Wen Chen, has maintained a relatively stable record over recent years regarding infestation management.
While the building has received four Class A Housing Maintenance Code violation notices between 2021 and 2024 for failing to file annual bedbug reports as required by HPD rules, these violations have been resolved.
Notably, the most recent filing period from November 2022 to October 2023, submitted in June 2024, indicated no infested units, and previous filings also showed minimal impact: the 2020-2021 period reported 0 infested units, while the 2019-2020 period showed all 4 units were eradicated of bedbugs. The building's consistent reporting and resolution of violations, along with the recent zero infestation counts, suggest effective management of this particular concern, though the pattern of violations over multiple years indicates there may have been initial challenges with compliance to reporting requirements between 2021 and 2024.
