98 Bay 8th Street, Brooklyn, NY 11228

The three-unit, two-story residential building at 98 Bay 8th Street in Bath Beach, owned by Junyu He and constructed in 1930, has experienced several notable events in recent years. Most significantly, in 2024, there were multiple complaints regarding illegal conversion and work without permits, with four separate Department of Buildings complaints filed in September-October 2024.

While three of these investigations resulted in access being denied on second attempts, one complaint about work without a permit was investigated on September 26, 2024, and found to warrant no violation at that time. These recent complaints could indicate potential unauthorized modifications to the building structure or units.

The building has a documented history of bedbug reporting requirements, with violations issued in 2021, 2022, and 2023 for failure to file the annual bedbug report with HPD, though all these violations are now marked as closed. However, the most recent bedbug reports (for the periods ending October 2022 and October 2023) indicate no infested units, units requiring eradication, or re-infestation cases, suggesting that while there were earlier compliance issues, the building may currently be free of bedbug problems. All inspections for these violations and bedbug reports have been conducted in accordance with Housing Maintenance Code requirements, and the building's classification as "HEREAFTER CONVERTED CLASS A" suggests it has been converted from an original use to a residential building, though the specific details of this conversion are not provided in the available data.
