Augrented Insights Report for 609 45th Street

609 45th Street is a 5-story, 48-unit New Law tenement building in Sunset Park, built in 1923 and currently owned by Chris Varveris. The property has experienced recurring maintenance issues in recent months, with multiple emergency complaints filed through 311 between December 2024 and March 2025 related to heat and hot water (including several building-wide complaints in January), window safety (broken/missing window guard), and various paint/plaster conditions across multiple units (CEILINGS/WALLS) that resulted in incomplete HPD inspections.

The building's Unit C6 has several open Housing Maintenance Code violations from September 2023, including issues with plastered surfaces, leaks, and required repairs to the bathroom ceiling and south wall. Between 2024-2025, there have been consistent heat/hot water complaints, with HPD often unable to gain access to verify conditions, though some inspections confirmed restoration of services. The building underwent significant construction activity around 2019, which generated multiple Dept of Buildings violations, including issues with tenant protection plans and expired insurance documentation, though most were resolved.

Environmental Control Board violations from that period indicated problems with compliance regarding worker protection and permit requirements. More recent complaints in 2025 have focused on maintenance issues rather than construction-related concerns, though there was an unresolved complaint as of March 2025 regarding construction lead dust entering an apartment. Notably, the building has maintained a clean record regarding bedbug infestations over the past six years, with zero reported cases from 2019-2025, and rodent inspections in 2018 generally passed, though there were some rat activity reports in 2017.
