179 Bay 20th Street, Brooklyn, NY 11214

The three-unit, two-story residential building at 179 Bay 20th Street in Bath Beach has experienced recurring regulatory compliance issues over the past four years, specifically concerning bedbug reporting requirements.

According to Housing Maintenance Code violations on record with the New York City Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD), the property owner, Jan Staniszewski, has failed to file the required annual bedbug reports for four consecutive years between 2021 and 2024. The most recent violation, recorded in April 2024, remains open alongside those from previous years in 2023, 2022, and 2021, all of which relate to the same reporting requirement under § HMC.

Given the building's history of non-compliance with this particular regulation, there appears to be an ongoing oversight regarding bedbug reporting requirements, though it's important to note that these violations relate specifically to paperwork compliance rather than direct evidence of an infestation. This two-story, 3-unit structure, which was built in 1901, is classified as a HERETOFORE CONVERTED CLASS A dwelling, a designation that typically applies to buildings that have been converted to multiple dwellings from a single-family or similar use.
