717 39th Street, Brooklyn, NY 11232

The two-story, four-unit New Law Tenement building at 717 39th Street in Sunset Park, owned by Sabitree Cyril and built in 1932, has experienced several noteworthy maintenance events over recent years. The building has consistently complied with bedbug reporting requirements, with the most recent report filed in May 2024 showing zero infested units, and previous filings from 2022 and 2021 also indicating no infestations or eradications.

A plumbing issue was reported and investigated by HPD in August 2021, though no violations were found and the complaint was closed promptly within three days. The building's violation history shows a pattern of bedbug reporting violations between 2021 and 2024, for which the owner received Class A violations, though these appear to have been resolved through subsequent compliance.

In 2021, there was a more serious safety concern addressed when an illegal double-cylinder key-operated lock at the building entrance was ordered to be removed. This lock was in place during a documented housing violation inspection in April 2021, and while the violation was closed in September 2021, it represents a period of potentially compromised security. The most recent building inspection records indicate overall compliance with health and safety regulations, including successful rodent inspections as of March 2017, suggesting effective maintenance of basic building systems since the resolution of these various issues.
