755 44th Street, Brooklyn, NY 11220

The two-story, four-unit tenement building at 755 44th Street in Sunset Park, owned by Dariusz Szczesniak, has experienced several significant maintenance issues over the past few years. Most notably, there have been ongoing concerns with standing water on the property, with one open complaint from August 2023 regarding a container holding over 5 gallons of standing water, and a previous incident in July 2023 involving a container with under 5 gallons, where inspectors could not access the property for evaluation.

More recently, in late 2023 through early 2024, there was a documented case of mold (classified as an unsanitary condition) that prompted Department of Housing Preservation and Development involvement, though no violations were ultimately issued. The building has a history of bedbug-related compliance issues, with three consecutive Housing Maintenance Code violations from 2021 to 2023 regarding the failure to file annual bedbug reports, though these violations have since been closed.

However, the most recent bedbug report filing for the period of November 2022 to October 2023 shows zero infested units, suggesting successful eradication efforts. On a positive note, a rodent inspection conducted in March 2017 resulted in a passing grade, indicating no rodent issues at that time. The property, built in 1930, falls under the "New Law Tenement" classification and has been subject to regular oversight by housing authorities, though the resolution of various maintenance issues appears to have been inconsistent, with some complaints remaining open for extended periods.
