1485 East 34th Street, Brooklyn, NY 11234

The two-story, three-unit building at 1485 East 34th Street in Flatlands, owned by Lyril Thomas and constructed in 1940, has been subject to recurring regulatory attention regarding bedbug reporting compliance over the past four years. Most notably, there remains an open class A Housing Maintenance Code violation as of April 2024, related to the failure to file the annual bedbug report with the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD) as required.

This follows a pattern of similar violations in previous years, including 2023, 2022, and 2021, though those earlier violations were ultimately closed. Despite these compliance issues, the building's actual bedbug infestation history appears to be minimal during the reporting periods.

The bedbug report filed in April 2023 (covering the period from November 2021 to October 2022) documented zero infested dwelling units, zero units that had been previously infested and then eradicated, and no instances of re-infestation. The property was constructed in 1940 and currently carries a "HEREAFTER CONVERTED CLASS A" designation, indicating it has transitioned to a regulated class A multiple dwelling status. While the building's age and violation history may raise concerns, it's worth noting that no actual infestation cases have been recorded in recent years, though the persistent paperwork compliance issues remain an open matter.
