1961 East 17th Street, Brooklyn, NY 11229

The 6-unit, 3-story New Law Tenement building at 1961 East 17th Street in Sheepshead Bay, owned by Konstantina Kasapidis, has a documented history of compliance issues primarily related to bedbug reporting requirements. Between 2021 and 2024, the building received four consecutive violations for failing to file its annual bedbug report, with the most recent violation issued in April 2023 still marked as active with no disposition date.

Despite these violations, the bedbug reports filed for the periods of November 1, 2020 to October 31, 2021 and November 1, 2022 to October 31, 2023 show no instances of infestation, eradication, or re-infestation, suggesting that while the filing requirement was not met in previous years, the building maintained a bedbug-free status in the documented periods. In addition to the bedbug reporting violations, there is an active Department of Buildings violation from April 2023 regarding the failure to file the 2022 external low pressure inspection report, though no disposition comments are provided.

The building, constructed in 1926, has experienced these administrative compliance issues over the past few years, though no documented complaints or violations directly related to resident safety or living conditions have been recorded in the available data. The most recent bedbug report filed in July 2024 shows a clean record for the period ending October 31, 2023, with no infested or re-infested units reported.
