334 51st Street, Brooklyn, NY 11220
This 4-story, 4-unit New York City building located at 334 51st Street in Sunset Park is a New Law Single Room Occupancy (SRO) property built in 1905 and currently owned by Ravindra Kumar. The building has experienced recurring heating and hot water issues, with multiple emergency complaints filed between 2019 and 2022, affecting both the entire building and individual apartments.
While some complaints indicate that problems were resolved shortly after reporting, others, such as the 2022 complaint, resulted in HPD being unable to gain access for inspection. Additional concerns during this period included unsanitary conditions including mold (2020), mailbox issues (2020), and safety concerns regarding stairs and carbon monoxide detectors (2019) where access for inspection was not granted. The building has undergone several inspections and had multiple violations documented, including issues with the fire escape system in 2019, which was found to have defective conditions and obstructions.
More recent inspections in 2023 and 2024 resulted in violations for not filing annual bedbug reports, though the bedbug reporting history shows no infestations were reported in the past three filing periods from 2021 through 2024. The most recent complaints in 2024 regarding illegal work/change in occupancy use and boiler issues resulted in inspectors being unable to gain access for verification. Throughout its history, the building has maintained regular bedbug reporting compliance, with zero units reported as infested, eradicated, or re-infested between 2021 and 2024.
