4001 6th Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11232
The two-story, three-unit building at 4001 6th Avenue in Sunset Park, owned by Muhai Fang and constructed in 1945, has experienced several significant maintenance issues in recent years. Most notably, there has been an ongoing pattern of rodent activity, with rat sightings reported through 311 calls occurring regularly between 2023 and 2025.
The most recent inspections in 2025 revealed both rat activity in March and a subsequent compliance check in May which passed, though a health violation requiring follow-up inspections was noted earlier in 2025. The building's history shows multiple Housing Maintenance Code violations regarding bedbug reporting from 2021 through 2024, though the most recent bedbug report filed in June 2024 covering the period from November 2022 to October 2023 indicated no infested, eradicated, or re-infested units.
An unrelated complaints investigation in 2022 about work without a permit in an occupied multiple dwelling concluded with no violations found at the time of inspection. The property has undergone regular inspections for both bedbug compliance and rodent activity, with a mixed record of passing and failing inspections, though recent reports show some improvement as evidenced by the passed rodent inspection in May 2025. The building's issues appear to be being addressed through regular inspections and reporting requirements, though the recurring nature of rodent sightings suggests ongoing challenges in this area.
