1554 East 14th Street, Brooklyn, NY 11230

1554 East 14th Street is a 3-unit, 3-story residential building in Midwood, constructed in 1986 and owned by Moysha Burekhovich. The building has experienced recurring issues with compliance to the Housing Maintenance Code's bedbug reporting requirements, receiving violation notices in 2021, 2022, and most recently in March 2023 for failing to file the required annual bedbug reports.

However, the property has consistently demonstrated proper pest management, as evidenced by the bedbug reports from 2021 through 2024 showing zero infested dwelling units, zero eradicated units, and zero re-infested units during all reporting periods. Of greater concern are the persistent complaints and inspection attempts regarding alleged illegal conversions of the property.

Between January 2023 and October 2024, there were multiple complaints filed (six in total) about potential illegal conversions, with all but one being marked as "Inspector Unable To Gain Access - 2nd Final Attempt." The most recent complaint from October 2024 remains active as of October 2024, with a final inspection attempt recorded on October 11, 2024, though the disposition details indicate access was again denied. The pattern of access denial during inspections suggests ongoing non-compliance with building regulations, though without conclusive evidence from inspections. This situation warrants attention given the potential implications for safety and building code compliance.
