2150 85th Street, Brooklyn, NY 11214

The three-story, three-unit residential building at 2150 85th Street in Bensonhurst, owned by Xiu Li, was constructed in 2002 and has experienced several notable maintenance issues in recent years. Most concerning is a cluster of safety-related incidents in August 2023, when complaints were filed regarding a broken window guard, a smoke detector issue, and a carbon monoxide detector problem - all of which were investigated by the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD), though no violations were ultimately issued.

The building has also faced recurring violations related to safety equipment, including an open Class B violation from July 2022 regarding missing carbon monoxide detectors in Apartment 1, and other safety concerns were addressed in 2022 involving self-closing doors and a roach infestation in that same unit. The property has a documented history of bedbug reporting requirements, with multiple violations for failing to file annual bedbug reports between 2021 and 2024.

However, the most recent bedbug report filed in October 2024 for the period between November 2022 and October 2023 shows no infested dwelling units, no units requiring eradication, and no instances of re-infestation, suggesting successful resolution of this pest issue. Additional historical maintenance issues include a paint/plaster problem with walls reported in June 2022, though this was classified as a non-emergency and was subsequently closed. While many of the building's violations have been addressed and closed, the pattern of safety equipment issues in 2023 and historical pest problems indicate ongoing maintenance challenges.
