4906 6th Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11220

4906 6th Avenue is a 4-story, 12-unit New Law tenement building constructed in 1910, currently owned by Hp Sunset Park Ii Hdfc Inc. The building has experienced recurring heating and hot water issues, with multiple emergency complaints filed between November 12-13, 2024, indicating a Systemic building-wide problem. Most recent records show the heat and hot water were restored during HPD's initial investigation.

The building has a history of maintenance concerns, including rodent activity as documented in April 2022, and unsanitary conditions relating to pests in November 2022 that required HPD intervention. Significant mechanical issues were reported in 2021, including major boiler and water heater violations that prompted Environmental Control Board penalties totaling $2,500. These violations involved hazardous conditions requiring immediate attention, such as flooding issues, corroded flues, and defective interlock systems.

Past complaints have also documented door frame issues in Apartment 1C (2020), and indoor air quality concerns in February 2024. While the building has maintained an apparently successful bedbug eradication program with no reported infestations between 2020-2025 (excluding one incident in 2020), the persistent heating system problems and mechanical violations suggest ongoing maintenance challenges. The property has had several Housing Maintenance Code violations over the years, particularly relating to heat/hot water systems and general maintenance requirements, though most have been resolved as indicated by HPD records.
