1840 73rd Street, Brooklyn, NY 11204

The two-story, three-unit New Law Tenement building at 1840 73rd Street in Bensonhurst, owned by Jia Liu Jiang and constructed in 1930, has recorded several ongoing housing maintenance code violations and historical building maintenance issues. Most notably, the building has consistently failed to file required annual bedbug reports for four consecutive years from 2021 to 2024, with the most recent violation recorded in April 2024 still remaining open.

These violations suggest a pattern of non-compliance with housing maintenance requirements regarding pest management documentation. In terms of building modifications and compliance issues, there are two significant historical cases from 2020-2022 related to the property's front yard area. Both incidents involved unauthorized modifications to the property's exterior, specifically concerning the front yard and sidewalk area.

In September 2020, the Department of Buildings issued penalties totaling $750 (later resolved) for two separate violations: one for an illegally lowered sidewalk curb and another for removing the required planting area and replacing it with concrete. These modifications raised concerns about proper building maintenance and compliance with city regulations regarding exterior space requirements. Additionally, there were two complaints regarding illegal curb cuts or driveway modifications in 2020 and 2022, both resulting in Oath Violations being served, though these were likely related to the previously mentioned sidewalk modifications.
