6921 Ft Hamilton Parkway, Brooklyn, NY 11228

The three-story, six-unit building at 6921 Fort Hamilton Parkway in Dyker Heights, constructed in 1931 and currently owned by Yu Wen Chen, has experienced several maintenance and safety issues over the past few years. In 2021, there were notable electrical problems, including a power outage on May 3 (classified as an immediate emergency), wiring issues on May 5 (emergency), and a bell/intercom system problem at the end of July (non-emergency).

While the electrical complaints were investigated without resulting violations, the intercom issue was closed due to HPD's inability to gain access for inspection. More recent concerns include an open violation from April 2024 regarding the failure to submit the annual bedbug report as required under Housing Maintenance Code (HMC) § HMC:FILE, though previous violations from 2021 through 2023 related to this same reporting requirement had been closed.

The building's bedbug reporting history shows consistent records from 2021-2022 and 2020-2021, with no units reported as infested, eradicated, or re-infested in either filing period, suggesting effective management of this potential issue. Additionally, there was a gas utility referral complaint in 2019, though the inspector was unable to gain access for inspection. The building's age and history of electrical and intercom system issues suggest ongoing maintenance considerations, though the more recent bedbug reporting compliance and lack of documented infestations indicate responsible pest management practices.
