858 45th Street, Brooklyn, NY 11220

The two-story tenement building at 858 45th Street in Borough Park, owned by Pei Xia Zhao, has a mixed but generally stable record since 2018, with some notable concerns. The 1925 brick building, classified as a New Law Tenement and containing three units, experienced a heating system failure affecting the entire building in October 2018, though this issue was resolved within a couple of days.

In April 2021, a violation was issued for failure to file the required annual bedbug report, though this was subsequently closed. More recently, there have been two complaints regarding possible illegal conversions of the property, in May 2023 and August 2024, with inspectors unable to gain access during both investigations. The bedbug reporting history from 2021 through 2024 is entirely clean, with zero infested units reported in the annual filings for the periods from 2021 through 2024.

The most recent bedbug report from December 2024 shows no infestations, with all related counts (infested, eradicated, re-infested) marked as zero. While the building's basic maintenance record shows some historical issues, current documentation suggests improved conditions, particularly regarding bedbug management, with no recent heating system complaints or violations related to bedbug reporting. However, the persistent unresolved status of the illegal conversion investigations warrants attention, as they represent the only currently active complaint against the building in the past decade.
