827 40th Street, Brooklyn, NY 11232
The 2-story New Law Tenement building at 827 40th Street in Borough Park, owned by Feng Yang, has experienced recurring heating system issues over the past several years, with multiple emergency complaints about heat and hot water loss between 2019-2020 affecting the entire building and individual apartments. Most recently, in 2024, there were complaints about heating issues that could not be properly investigated due to lack of access.
The building has also had two recent rodent-related incidents, with a 2024 complaint about conditions attracting rodents, though inspections in 2023 and 2024 resulted in passing inspections. While the property faced several Class A violations regarding bedbug reporting compliance between 2020-2023, these were resolved, and the most recent bedbug reports for 2024-2025 show no infested units. Notably, there was a Class C violation in 2019 regarding an illegal double-cylinder lock on the building entrance door, though this was closed by November 2019.
The building has had two recent rodent inspections in 2023 and 2024, both of which passed. A complaint about an illegal conversion was filed in 2022, but the inspector was unable to gain access for verification. The property received several permits in 2019 for unspecified work, which were properly issued.
