4924 8th Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11220
The three-story multi-unit building at 4924 8th Avenue in Sunset Park, owned by Yim Chow Tung, has been experiencing recurring pest control issues, particularly with rodent activity, from 2011 through 2024. Most recently, in 2024, there have been multiple documented rodent sightings including rat and mouse sightings between September and October of that year, with subsequent inspections in October and November 2024 confirming continued rat activity.
The Department of Health and Mental Hygiene (DOHMH) found violations during a rodent-related inspection in April 2024, and the building has been subject to multiple rodent inspections throughout 2024, consistently showing rat activity. In addition to the pest control challenges, the building has a history of regulatory compliance issues.
Between 2021 and 2024, there have been four consecutive years where the building failed to file its required annual bedbug reports, resulting in Housing Maintenance Code violations. The property has also faced regulatory scrutiny related to other health and safety matters, including three violations in January 2022 regarding COVID-19 safety non-compliance (vaccine mandate violations and face covering mandate not enforced). The building's violation history includes various complaints about unauthorized work and occupancy issues, with a notable illegal conversion case in 2018 involving a Chinese medicine business that was eventually resolved, and a minimum of four failures to file the required bedbug reports between 2021 and 2024.
