449 43rd Street, Brooklyn, NY 11232
The three-unit, two-story building at 449 43rd Street in Sunset Park, owned by Frank Denicola, has a concerning recent history spanning several significant issues. Most notably, there have been multiple emergency complaints in 2024 regarding unsanitary mold conditions, with three complaints between August and September that were investigated by HPD, though no violations were found in any of these inspections.
There are persistent open violations related to the failure to file annual bedbug reports from 2021 through 2024. The building experienced a heat and hot water complaint in January 2022, where inspectors were unable to gain access to verify the reported conditions.
Additional infrastructure concerns have emerged, including a March 2024 complaint about defective electrical wiring that resulted in an Oath violation, and a 2025 boiler complaint that, while investigated, resulted in no violations being noted. More recently, in April 2024, an inspection led to a $4,000 violation for improper use of extension cords for Christmas lighting on the exterior of the building, which is currently listed as active with that penalty still due. While rodent sightings were reported in 2024, subsequent inspections in April and May 2024 passed without any violations being noted.
