535 40th Street, Brooklyn, NY 11232
The three-story, three-unit residential building at 535 40th Street in Sunset Park, currently owned by Magdalena Hernandez, has a documented history dating back to its 1920 construction as an Old Law Tenement. The building has experienced recurring issues with compliance regarding required annual bedbug reporting under the Housing Maintenance Code, with open violations in 2024, 2023, and 2022.
These violations indicate that the property management has consistently failed to file the necessary bedbug reports as mandated by HPD regulations. In 2021, there was one such violation that was subsequently closed, and during this same year, a complaint was filed regarding work without a permit in the occupied multiple dwelling. However, this complaint was investigated on May 19, 2021, and no violations were found at that time.
The bedbug reporting history shows some positive aspects, with the filing period from November 2019 to October 2020 reporting zero infested or eradicated units, though it's worth noting that this was during a period when there was already a pattern of violations regarding annual report submissions. The building underwent a rodent inspection in March 2017, which it passed. While the property has maintained three units and was built in 1920, the most pressing and consistent issue appears to be around bedbug reporting compliance, with open violations extending into 2024.
