Augrented Insights Report for 748 40th Street

The two-story New Law Tenement at 748 40th Street in Sunset Park, owned by Yuelan Zhang, has experienced several significant maintenance issues over the past few years. Most notably, in 2025, there were consecutive reports of unsanitary conditions related to garbage storage and pest problems, with violations issued in June 2025. Between January 2025 and April 2025, there were two separate complaints about heating and hot water issues affecting the entire building, though HPD was unable to gain access for inspection.

The building has also faced persistent rodent problems, with inspections in 2024 confirming rat activity. The property underwent serious violations in 2020 when it was found to be illegally converted to contain additional housing units in the cellar, leading to multiple ECB violations and a $10,000 penalty ($2,500 for each of four violations related to unauthorized conversion, improper egress, and other code violations). This was investigated during the summer of 2020, along with complaints about water leaks and ceiling plaster issues.

The building's maintenance history includes consistent bedbug monitoring, with reports from 2021 and 2024 indicating no active infestations during their respective reporting periods. Recent violations have also included challenges with garbage management and pest control, evident from the 2025 HPD complaints. While some violations have been marked as resolved, there remains an open B violation from 2020 regarding encumbered scuttle ladder access. The property has maintained regular permit reporting and compliance inspections, with the most recent bedbug report (May 2024) showing no current infestations.
