1840 84th Street, Brooklyn, NY 11214

1840 84th Street in Bensonhurst is a three-story, three-unit residential building constructed in 1910 and currently owned by Mingyu Zhao. The property has a concerning pattern of open violations related to bedbug reporting requirements, with four consecutive Housing Maintenance Code violations recorded between 2021 and 2024, all citing the owner's failure to file the necessary annual bedbug reports with the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD).

The building has also been subject to multiple Department of Buildings (DOB) complaints regarding possible illegal activity, including two separate complaints about illegal conversions in 2022-2023, though one resulted in a vacate order that was fully rescinded in September 2023. Other complaints included excessive debris in 2022 and an alleged illegal commercial/manufacturing use in 2021, both of which were dismissed upon inspection for lack of supporting evidence.

The most recent bedbug reporting violation, recorded in April 2024, remains open as of July 2025, continuing the pattern of non-compliance with mandated pest control reporting requirements. The building has undergone various inspections over the years in response to complaints, with inspectors finding no violations in several instances, including a construction enforcement complaint in March 2023 and a debris-related complaint in April 2022. While some complaints have been resolved, including a 2023 illegal conversion case, the persistent bedbug reporting violations and history of conversion-related complaints suggest ongoing regulatory compliance issues that affect the building's management record.
