1761 79th Street, Brooklyn, NY 11214
The three-story, six-unit residential building at 1761 79th Street in Bensonhurst, owned by Zhi Zeng, is a New Law Tenement constructed in 1931. The property has several active violations as of mid-2025 that warrant attention.
Most notably, there are multiple outstanding Department of Buildings (DOB) violations from 2023 regarding the failure to file external low-pressure inspections for 2018, 2019, and 2020. Additionally, there is a housing maintenance code violation from April 2024 related to the failure to file the annual bedbug report, though previous violations for this issue from 2021 through 2023 have been marked as closed.
Interestingly, the bedbug reporting for the period of 2021-2022 shows no infested, eradicated, or re-infested dwelling units, suggesting effective management of bedbug issues when they occur. The only other major building event on record is a successful rodent inspection in November 2011. The combination of active violations regarding safety inspections and the recurring bedbug report compliance issues suggests some regulatory oversight challenges, though the building has demonstrated an ability to address pest control matters when they arise.
