4910 6th Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11220

The 16-unit, 4-story tenement building at 4910 6th Avenue in Sunset Park, owned by Austin Blanco, is a 1910 structure facing significant maintenance challenges. Most recently, in January 2025, multiple service requests were filed regarding heat and hot water issues (both building-wide and apartment-specific), window frame problems, electrical concerns including a power outage, plumbing issues in the bathtub/shower, and interior wall conditions. These complaints were primarily addressed through HPD inspections, with some resulting in violations.

Four active Class A and B violations from an August 2024 inspection specifically relate to Apartment 4D, including problems with plaster surfaces, paint conditions, window repairs, and the need for proper window guards. The building has a history of moisture-related issues, evidenced by a December 2024 complaint regarding mold. The property has maintained a relatively clean bedbug record over the past several years, with no infestations reported between 2019 and 2024, though there was one instance in 2019 that was resolved.

Recent service requests also include open complaints about wall conditions requiring attention. While some complaints have been resolved through inspections that found no violations, including those related to plumbing and electrical issues, the building continues to face ongoing maintenance challenges with multiple open violations and service requests as of 2025. The building's documented history shows persistent maintenance issues, particularly in the past year, with multiple simultaneous complaints being filed and requiring HPD intervention. While the property has undergone inspections and some violations have been addressed, the sheer number of recent complaints suggests ongoing challenges with building maintenance and tenant services.
