1709 Benson Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11214
The two-story, four-unit residential building at 1709 Benson Avenue in Bath Beach, owned by Yuk Yee Kam, has been in operation since 1922 and is classified as a New Law Tenement.
The property has a concerning pattern of violations related to bedbug reporting requirements, with open violations noted in 2022, 2023, and the most recent inspection in April 2024, all citing the owner's failure to file the mandatory annual bedbug report required by the Housing Maintenance Code. While the building's April 2021 bedbug filing did indicate no infested or eradicated units during the reporting period of November 2019 to October 2020, the subsequent open violations suggest ongoing compliance issues.
Additionally, there is a historical parking violation from January 2018, which involved a vehicle being illegally parked on the sidewalk in front of the building, resulting in a $250 penalty that was eventually resolved. The consistent nature of the bedbug reporting violations over multiple years, culminating in the most recent infraction in 2024, represents the most significant ongoing regulatory compliance issue for this property.
