2450 East 23rd Street, Brooklyn, NY 11235

The three-unit, two-story New Law Tenement building at 2450 East 23rd Street in Sheepshead Bay, owned by Jane Li, has a documented history of recurring bedbug-related issues over the past several years. Most recently, in the 2023-2024 reporting period (November 2023 - October 2024), there were no reported infestations, with all three units certified as eradicated.

However, the previous reporting period (2022-2023) showed significant activity, with all three units initially infested, though they were ultimately eradicated, with three units noted as re-infested during the period. The building has consistently filed the required annual bedbug reports to HPD, beginning with no reported infestations for the 2020-2021 period, then showing a pattern of infestation and eradication between 2021 and 2023. The property has received four separate Housing Maintenance Code violation notices between 2021 and 2024 for failure to file the annual bedbug report, though all these violations are now closed.

These violations, while technically classified as Class A (which generally indicates violations affecting safety or habitability), primarily relate to documentation requirements rather than direct resident safety concerns. The most recent bedbug report filed in July 2025 shows zero infested units, indicating a potential improvement in pest management practices, though this follows a period of notable infestations and re-infestations over the previous year. The building has maintained compliance with filing requirements in 2024 and 2025, though the pattern of previous infestations and the historical violations may still be of relevance to current and prospective tenants.
