459 51st Street, Brooklyn, NY 11220

The 4-unit, 4-story building at 459 51st Street in Sunset Park, owned by Bktianhao, has experienced several maintenance issues over recent years, with the most significant being two unresolved complaints in 2024 regarding a door frame (reported March 21, 2024) and an intercom system (reported May 17, 2024). Both of these were marked as non-emergency complaints, though the Housing Preservation and Development (HPD) Department was unable to gain access for inspection.

Looking back further, the building had a heat and hot water emergency issue affecting the entire building in February 2020, which was promptly addressed according to tenant reports. The building's history also includes several Department of Buildings (DOB) complaints in late 2021 and late 2018, all of which were closed without violations being warranted at the time of inspection.

These complaints were related to construction issues, including concerns about unauthorized work and smoking on-site during construction, and a complaint about missing permits. More recently, between November 2022 and October 2023, the building has reported no bedbug infestations, with a clean record showing zero units affected, eradicated, or re-infested. The property, constructed in 1931 and classed as HERETOFORE CONVERTED CLASS A, has had a mix of routine and more serious maintenance issues over the past few years, with the most pressing current concerns being the unresolved door and intercom system problems from 2024.
