2016 West 8th Street, Brooklyn, NY 11223

The two-story, three-unit residential building at 2016 West 8th Street in Gravesend, owned by Feng Lin, has been standing since 1950 and has undergone a few significant events in recent years. Most notably, the building has consistently maintained compliance with bedbug reporting requirements, with no reported infestations in the last three annual filings between 2021 and 2024, indicating effective pest management practices. The property experienced some maintenance issues in late 2019/early 2020 related to ceiling paint/plaster, but these complaints were ultimately closed due to lack of access for inspection.

The building has also received three consecutive violations (2022-2024) regarding the failure to file annual bedbug reports, though these appear to be administrative in nature given the subsequent filings showing no infestations. An older violation from 1980 concerning self-closing doors in the boiler enclosure was certified as corrected in 2019. On the improvements side, two permits were issued in December 2018 for electrical and plumbing work, though specific details about the completed work are not provided in the records.

The most recent documented building inspection occurred in April 2024, and while it resulted in a violation regarding bedbug reporting, the permit history suggests maintenance and upgrading work has been undertaken. The pattern of bedbug report compliance over multiple years, with zero reportable units, stands out as a positive aspect of the building's recent history. While there have been some maintenance and administrative issues recorded over the years, particularly regarding the bedbug reporting, these appear to be relatively minor in nature compared to the overall history of the building.
