722 4th Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11232

The 3-unit, 4-story tenement building at 722 4th Avenue in Sunset Park, owned by Mulhi Akam, has experienced several notable incidents and maintenance issues since 2021. The building is currently subject to multiple open violations dating back to 2021-2024, including issues with required safety postings such as smoke detector and carbon monoxide detector notices, gas leak procedures, and bedbug reporting compliance.

Two particularly concerning violations from August 2021 remain unresolved regarding the required posting of safety information, including smoke detector requirements and carbon monoxide detector requirements, as well as the need for bedbug reporting compliance. An active Environmental Control Board violation from 2018 relates to unauthorized construction of a canopy roof over a garage area, though the penalty has been listed as paid. The building's service history shows several complaints between 2021-2024, including a food poisoning incident in 2022 that resulted in the closure of a business selling illegal products, and various plumbing and sanitation complaints that were investigated but did not result in violations.

Bedbug-related issues appear to have been properly addressed according to the 2021 bedbug report, showing no infested units during the reporting period. Prior to 2021, a complaint regarding illegal conversion was filed in 2020 but was determined to have no warrant for violation upon inspection in 2021. The building's maintenance record suggests ongoing challenges with compliance to safety and reporting requirements, particularly regarding bedbug reporting and safety notice postings, though many previous violations from 2021-2022 have been resolved or closed.
