1064 63rd Street, Brooklyn, NY 11219

The two-story, three-unit New Law Tenement building at 1064 63rd Street in Borough Park, owned by Dina Chu, has several notable issues in its recent history. Most concerning is the pattern of recurring Housing Maintenance Code violations related to bedbug reporting requirements, with open violations in 2022, 2023, and 2024, though these appear to be administrative in nature rather than indicating an active infestation problem.

The building experienced significant safety concerns in late 2021 during construction work, when an Environmental Control Board violation was issued for failure to safeguard persons and property during construction operations, resulting in a $10,000 penalty. This situation arose in connection with unpermitted work that was documented through a Department of Buildings complaint in October 2021, though this specific complaint was ultimately resolved through an Oath violation service.

The building's inspection history shows some irregularities, including a completed bedbug report for the period from late 2019 to late 2020 indicating zero infested units and successful eradication efforts, despite subsequent bedbug reporting violations. Additionally, there were two Department of Buildings complaints filed in late 2021 regarding illegal conversion and unpermitted work in the occupied multiple dwelling, though the illegal conversion complaint was found to warrant no violation upon inspection. The property has maintained its original 1925 structure without any significant modifications on record, as evidenced by the ongoing bedbug reporting violations, which appear to indicate non-compliance with the requirement to annually file bedbug reports with HPD rather than indicating an ongoing pest infestation problem.
