729 42nd Street, Brooklyn, NY 11232
The two-story, two-unit building at 729 42nd Street in Sunset Park, owned by Carol Lindquist, has undergone significant maintenance and safety issues between 2022 and 2025. The property, which dates back to 1905 and is now classified as a converted Class A building, experienced multiple plumbing and maintenance problems in 2022, particularly during June when multiple violations were documented including issues with sinks, cabinet repairs, wall surfaces, and water supply.
The building has two open violations related to bedbug reporting requirements from 2022 and 2023, though a bedbug report was submitted for the 2019-2020 period showing no infestations. In May 2025, an influx of urgent maintenance issues was reported and subsequently addressed, including problems with window guards, door security, electrical wiring, water supply systems, and missing safety detectors for carbon monoxide and smoke.
Despite these challenges, earlier inspections in 2017 and 2022 showed the building passed rodent inspections and underwent various repairs, though many maintenance issues remain unresolved based on current violations. An illegal conversion complaint was filed in 2022 but access was denied during inspection attempts.
