836 40th Street, Brooklyn, NY 11232

The two-story, four-unit building at 836 40th Street in Borough Park, owned by H&J 836 LLC, has been standing since 1925 as a New Law Tenement. The building's records reveal a consistent pattern of bedbug reporting requirements, with Housing Maintenance Code violations recorded in 2021, 2022, and most recently in 2023, all related to the failure to file annual bedbug reports as mandated by HPD rules.

However, the actual bedbug reports submitted for the building from 2021 through 2025 show no reported infestations in any units during the respective reporting periods. The building recently experienced two significant Department of Buildings complaints in 2025: one regarding construction enforcement in June (which resulted in compliance inspection), and another in May concerning illegal hotel rooms in residential buildings, which led to a full vacate order being served in June.

While the bedbug reporting violations suggest some administrative oversight, it's worth noting that the building has maintained a record of zero infestations across multiple reporting periods. The most recent bedbug report for the period starting November 2023 shows no infested or eradicated units, continuing the streak of documented non-infestation. The building's management has been compliant with the actual bedbug reporting requirements since the initial violations, though these incidents may indicate previous administrative oversight in maintaining compliance with all regulatory requirements.
