136 Avenue U, Brooklyn, NY 11223
This three-story, five-unit tenement building located at 136 Avenue U in Gravesend was built in 1931 and is currently owned by Tommy Ly.
The property has a concerning pattern of violations related to the Housing Maintenance Code's bedbug reporting requirements, with four consecutive open violations recorded between 2021 and 2024 (specifically on April 8, 2024; March 21, 2023; February 23, 2022; and April 7, 2021). These violations indicate the building has consistently failed to submit its annual bedbug reports as required by the NYC Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD) rules.
In addition to the bedbug reporting violations, there was one complaint filed on March 23, 2021, regarding construction work without a permit in the occupied multiple dwelling. However, this complaint was promptly inspected the same day and resulted in a determination of "No Violation Warranted For Complaint At Time Of Inspection." The most recent bedbug reporting violation in April 2024 remains open as of the current date, July 2025, suggesting the lack of compliance with HPD requirements has persisted into 2025.
