313 46th Street, Brooklyn, NY 11220

The two-family house at 313 46th Street in Sunset Park, owned by Gene Burshtein, has experienced persistent rodent-related issues over the past few years, with the most recent complaints occurring in 2024. Between 2022 and 2024, the property has had multiple rat sightings and conditions attracting rodents, with three complaints in 2024 alone.

The Department of Health and Mental Hygiene (DOHMH) conducted several inspections during this period, consistently finding rat activity and applying bait in March and April 2024, while previous inspections in 2023 also documented rat activity, including failed compliance results in May and June 2023. External to these health concerns, there is an active violation on record from January 2019 regarding illegal roof and wall sign structures that were erected and mounted without proper permits, exceeding height and surface area limits. The building's rodent infestation issues appear to be a recurring problem, with 11 documented rodent-related incidents since 2022, including six in 2023 alone.

The property's rodent problems have been persistent enough to warrant multiple follow-up inspections and bait applications, suggesting ongoing challenges with pest management. While most rodent complaints were closed promptly within days, the frequency and consistency of these reports indicate that the building has been dealing with an ongoing pest management situation. The 2019 violation regarding illegal sign structures adds to the property's record of building code compliance issues, though it is worth noting that this violation remains active as of the current date.
