8305 20th Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11214

The three-story, three-unit residential building at 8305 20th Avenue in Bensonhurst, owned by John Vullo, has experienced a number of significant events in recent years. Most notably, there has been persistent activity relating to unauthorized construction work, particularly in the latter half of 2024 and early 2025, with multiple complaints filed regarding "Work Without a Permit" in occupied multiple dwellings.

These complaints, though mostly resulting in no violations being warranted at the time of inspection, suggest some ongoing concerns about construction activities in the building. An active Environmental Control Board violation from September 2024 remains open, regarding improperly installed BX cable wire at exterior walls and a fence, with a penalty of $1,280 imposed. The building's maintenance record shows attention to bedbug reporting requirements, with the most recent annual report filed in December 2023 indicating zero infested units, zero units requiring eradication, and no re-infestation during the reporting period.

The property has maintained compliance with bedbug reporting requirements, with previous reports from 2021 showing similar results of no infestations. The building's violation history includes two bedbug-related violations in 2021 and 2023, though these were likely administrative in nature rather than indicative of pest problems, as the subsequent reports showed no infestations. While the building has experienced some compliance issues, particularly regarding unauthorized work, the management has generally maintained compliance with bedbug reporting requirements, and the most recent reports suggest pest issues are not currently affecting resident quality of life.
