315 56th Street, Brooklyn, NY 11220
315 56th Street in Sunset Park is a 3-unit, 3-story building constructed in 1899, currently owned by Richard Yudenfriend. The property has experienced several significant maintenance and safety issues, particularly between 2018-2019. Multiple violations were recorded in 2019, including concerning conditions of the front entryway, loose handrails, and staircase stability issues, with some violations remaining open as of March 2023.
The building faced substantial structural concerns in 2019, with complaints about building stability and documented problems including rotted decorative wood, detached handrails, and an obstructed fire escape landing. Between 2019-2020, the building demonstrated persistent pest control challenges, with multiple rodent sightings reported in 2020 and several pest-related complaints investigated by the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD) in May 2019. The property had documented rat activity as recently as May 2020, though inspections by HPD found no violations in some cases.
The building has since maintained proper bedbug reporting compliance from 2019-2024, with no reported infestations during these periods. The most recent bedbug reports from 2024 show zero infested or eradicated units. While some violations from 2019 regarding lighting, painting, and waste accumulation in public areas remain notable, these issues appear to have improved over time. Recent inspections in 2023 did not reveal any active violations, suggesting improved maintenance standards, though the property has had multiple prior violations requiring attention to basic safety and habitability standards.
