1920 West 13th Street, Brooklyn, NY 11223

The three-unit residential building at 1920 West 13th Street in Gravesend, owned by Wen Cao, has experienced recurring issues with compliance on required bedbug reporting over the past four years. While the building was constructed in 2001 and is classified as a Class A structure, it has notably accumulated four Housing Maintenance Code violations related to its failure to file annual bedbug reports with the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD).

These violations, which are classified as "A" (indicating their potential impact on resident safety), span from 2021 to 2024, with the most recent open violations recorded in March and April 2024, continuing a concerning pattern of non-compliance. The property's bedbug report filings from 2022 for the 2020-2021 period show no recorded instances of infestation, with zero units affected or requiring eradication.

This suggests that while the building has failed to comply with reporting requirements, it has maintained a bedbug-free status according to its filings. The consistent pattern of bedbug report violation notices over multiple years, with the most recent violations still remaining open as of 2024, presents an ongoing compliance issue, despite the apparent absence of actual infestations during the reporting periods.
