614 40th Street, Brooklyn, NY 11232
The 35-unit, 4-story New Law Tenement building at 614 40th Street in Sunset Park, owned by Billy Arroyo, has experienced several significant maintenance issues over the past year. Most notably, in August 2024, multiple complaints involving both pests and door-related problems were reported, leading to HPD inspections that resulted in violations being issued. These included unsanitary conditions with pests, door maintenance issues, and mold concerns.
A specific apartment (D9) on the 4th floor has been identified as having multiple violations, including pest infestations (roaches and flies), door mechanism problems, bathroom tile issues, and concerns about various types of doors and window fixtures, with some violations classified as Class A (open) as of September 2024. Earlier in 2024, the building also faced challenges with mold and pest conditions, as well as a brief heat/hot water issue in January that was addressed and closed. The property has maintained regular bedbug reporting, with the most recent filings showing no current infestations or eradication requirements, though historical data from 2019-2020 shows two confirmed cases that were successfully addressed.
The building appears to be responding to most violations and complaints, with many being certified as corrected by September 2024, including the repair of an intermediate landing window sash between the 3rd and 4th stories. A single Department of Buildings violation from 2019 regarding an energy benchmarking report was dismissed. A rodent inspection in March 2017 was passed, suggesting generally good conditions regarding this particular issue.
