851 56th Street, Brooklyn, NY 11220

The two-story, four-unit residential building at 851 56th Street in Borough Park, owned by Yeekeng Cho, has a notable history of regulatory compliance issues in 2018, though all documented violations have since been resolved. During inspections between July and October 2018, multiple violations were recorded related to building safety and maintenance, including the improper use of locks at the front entrance (C-class violations), a non-self-closing vestibule door, and various posting requirements in the public areas such as heating system contact information and gas leak procedures.

These violations were primarily concentrated in the second-floor public hall area, where there were also issues with household items obstructing common areas. Since those 2018 violations were addressed and certified closed by October of that year, there have been no further documented housing maintenance code violations.

The building has maintained a consistent record of bedbug monitoring compliance from 2018 through 2024, with all annual reports showing zero cases of infestation, eradication, or re-infestation in any of the units. This regular reporting suggests proper attention to pest management protocols, with the most recent reports from December 2023 showing the same zero infestation status.
