1968 79th Street, Brooklyn, NY 11214

The three-story, three-unit residential building at 1968 79th Street in Bensonhurst, owned by Inga Smolyar and constructed in 1915, has had a relatively straightforward history regarding pest management compliance. Most notably, there is an open violation as of April 2024 related to the failure to file the required annual bedbug report with the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD), which marks a continuation of similar issues in previous years.

The building had comparable violations in 2021 and 2022, though those were subsequently closed. The bedbug reporting forms for the 2021-2022 period indicate no infested units, with no units requiring eradication or experiencing re-infestation during the specified reporting period of November 2021 to October 2022.

The building's violation history shows a pattern of administrative non-compliance with bedbug reporting requirements, with the most recent violation in April 2024 representing an ongoing issue, though it is important to note that this building has maintained a record of not experiencing actual bedbug infestations in recent years according to the submitted reports. The property, classified as a "HERETOFORE CONVERTED CLASS A" building, appears to have maintained general structural and habitability standards, with the primary concerns stemming from procedural requirements regarding pest management reporting rather than actual pest presence or resident safety issues.
