562 40th Street, Brooklyn, NY 11232
The 4-story, 8-unit building at 562 40th Street in Sunset Park, constructed in 1925, has experienced several significant maintenance issues in recent years that warrant attention. Most notably, there have been multiple recent complaints regarding unsanitary conditions and pest problems, with three separate pest-related complaints filed between March and April 2025, one of which resulted in HPD violations.
The building appears to have recurring challenges with compliance, as indicated by multiple open violations regarding the annual bedbug reporting requirements dating back to 2021. Additional recent complaints include an unresolved issue with an electric/gas range in March 2025, though an HPD inspection was unable to gain access to verify the condition.
The building also has an active violation from June 2023 regarding the failure to file the 2018 external low-pressure inspection report, though there is no resolution date noted for this violation. While the building passed a rodent inspection in March 2017, the more recent history suggests ongoing concerns with both pest management and building maintenance compliance.
