63 Bay 17th Street, Brooklyn, NY 11214
The three-unit, three-story building at 63 Bay 17th Street in Bath Beach, owned by Jo Petti and constructed in 1905, has experienced numerous maintenance and compliance issues in recent years. Most notably, there are persistent open violations regarding the failure to file annual bedbug reports from 2021 through 2024, which directly impacts tenant health and safety.
The property has also faced several complications related to unauthorized construction work, with multiple complaints about work conducted without permits between 2023 and 2025. Most substantially, there were active ECB violations in 2023-2024 regarding unauthorized demolition of a backyard garage and construction of a porch, which resulted in penalties totaling over $5,000. There are several active ECB violations from 2019-2021 regarding the failure to comply with previous orders related to unauthorized basement modifications, with penalties totaling $127,500, though some of these violations were subsequently dismissed or resolved.
The Department of Buildings has conducted multiple inspections in response to complaints about work without permits and other issues, with most inspections finding no violations or warranting only limited penalties. The building's most recent significant violation occurred in 2024 regarding combustible construction debris, which was resolved with a penalty. While many of these violations have been addressed, the pattern of repeated bedbug report violations and unauthorized construction work raises concerns about ongoing maintenance compliance.
