472 41st Street, Brooklyn, NY 11232
The 16-unit, 4-story New Law Tenement building at 472 41st Street in Sunset Park, owned by Paul Murphy, has experienced recurring issues with its heating and hot water systems over the past several years, with the most recent complaint occurring in December 2024. This building-wide heating system problem has been reported multiple times, with similar issues observed in January 2022, September 2021, and through various individual apartment complaints.
There have also been electrical issues in 2024, including problems with lighting and outlets/switches that HPD was unable to access for inspection. The building's maintenance record shows some recent improvements as of 2024, with the resolution of three violations from May 2024 related to a defective vestibule door latch and fire escape obstructions, though one fire escape violation remains open. Previous documented issues include a broken hot water system in Apartment 3D in September 2021, several maintenance violations in Apartment 3C from July 2019 (including defective door knob, bathroom mold, and broken kitchen window pane), and various emergency heating system failures.
The building's bedbug reports from 2021-2024 consistently show zero infested units, indicating effective pest management. Two 2010 rodent inspection failures were recorded, but a 2014 inspection passed, suggesting improved pest control measures. Most recently, in December 2023, Building Management received an Environmental Control Board violation for an improperly supported AC unit and a plant pot on the fire escape, though this was resolved with no penalties assessed.
