647 4th Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11232
The 20-unit, 4-story tenement building at 647 4th Avenue in Sunset Park, owned by Mark Weinberger and constructed in 1921, has a documented history of maintenance issues and violations over recent years. The building has experienced recurrent heating and hot water problems, with emergency complaints in November 2023 and March 2024 regarding the entire building's systems, though no violations were ultimately issued.
More recent issues include two pest-related complaints in May 2025, which were inspected but found not to violate housing laws, and an earlier unsanitary condition complaint regarding garbage/recycling storage in January 2024. The building underwent multiple inspections in late 2023, resulting in documented violations for paint/plaster issues in both walls and ceilings, specifically affecting apartment 9, which also had documented pest infestation problems at that time. Historical data reveals patterns of pest and maintenance issues, including a period of heating system problems in late 2023, plumbing complaints in October 2023, and various pest-related complaints throughout 2022-2025.
The building's management has generally responded to violations, with records showing certification of correction for various issues, including the removal of wood desk encumbrances from the public hall and addressing pest infestations in apartment 9. The property has maintained compliance with bedbug reporting requirements since 2021, with the most recent report (for 2023-2024) showing no infested units, following a period of two infested units in 2022-2023 that were reported as eradicated. While the building has experienced periodic maintenance challenges typical of older tenements, particularly regarding heating systems and pest control, records indicate that most emergency complaints have been addressed promptly, often with no violations being issued upon inspection.
