2074 74th Street, Brooklyn, NY 11204

The two-story, three-unit residential building at 2074 74th Street in Bensonhurst, owned by Suzanne Ly, has a concerning pattern of ongoing housing maintenance violations related to bedbug reporting requirements. Between 2021 and 2024, the building received four consecutive violations for failing to file the mandatory annual bedbug reports as required by the Housing Maintenance Code, with the most recent violation still remaining open as of April 2024.

Additionally, there have been multiple complaints regarding potential illegal conversions, with complaints filed in 2019 and most recently in 2024, though access was denied on both occasions during inspection attempts. These complaints followed an environmental control board violation from April 2019, which documented unauthorized construction work on a garage extension measuring approximately two feet in width and eight feet in height, though this violation was resolved with no penalties imposed.

The building's violation history reveals persistent non-compliance with bedbug reporting requirements over multiple years, suggesting ongoing challenges with meeting housing maintenance standards. The pattern of inspection access denials related to illegal conversion complaints, both in 2019 and more recently in 2024, raises questions about the building's current configuration and use, though definitive conclusions cannot be drawn without successful inspections. The garage extension work completed in 2019, which prompted an environmental control board violation, appears to have been addressed through proper channels, as indicated by its resolved status with no associated penalties.
