1183 72nd Street, Brooklyn, NY 11228
The two-story, four-unit residential building at 1183 72nd Street in Dyker Heights, owned by Wenying Chen, has experienced ongoing sanitation and compliance issues since at least 2021. Most notably, there are several open violations regarding bedbug reporting requirements under Housing Maintenance Code (HMC) regulations, with the most recent violation documented in April 2024, and similar violations recorded in 2022, 2023, and 2021.
The building has also faced waste management challenges, as evidenced by a 311 complaint in August 2023 regarding unsanitary garbage/recycling storage conditions, which was closed in September 2023 with violations issued. Subsequent inspections have revealed open violations related to inadequate waste receptacles and collection arrangements, with specific violations cited under Administrative Code § 27-2021. The building's recent history also includes a 2019 complaint regarding illegal conversion, though this was investigated and closed with no violations found.
While there were rodent inspections in 2015 showing mixed results (failed in May 2015 and passed in September 2015), these incidents occurred nearly a decade ago and may not reflect current conditions. The property was built in 1928 and is classified as "HEREAFTER CONVERTED CLASS A," indicating it has undergone some form of conversion from a prior use. Despite the numerous open violations and past complaints, the records show that the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD) has been actively involved in addressing these issues through inspections and violation issuance.
