434 43rd Street, Brooklyn, NY 11232
434 43rd Street in Sunset Park, Brooklyn, is a two-story, three-unit residential building constructed in 1901 and currently owned by Guo & Zheng Investment LLC. The property has experienced recurring issues with unauthorized modifications and illegal conversions, most recently resulting in two Environmental Control Board violations in October 2023 for unpermitted work that created an unauthorized living space with a full kitchen and bathroom in the cellar level, including partitions, water lines, and electrical wiring.
An active violation related to this improper occupancy carries a penalty of $2,500, while another resolved violation incurred a $620 penalty. The building's maintenance history shows consistent bedbug reporting violations between 2021 and 2023, though recent filings in December 2023 and December 2024 indicate no infested units were reported during the respective periods. The property has experienced multiple inspection access issues between 2020 and 2021, including attempts to investigate complaints about unauthorized work, gas utility concerns, and construction activities.
Most recent inspections, including a compliance inspection in March 2025, have shown improved access cooperation. A rodent inspection conducted in April 2017 passed. The building's current bedbug reporting history, showing zero infestations and eradications over the past three filing periods, suggests improved pest management, though the property has a history of compliance challenges that required multiple annual reports.
