837 43rd Street, Brooklyn, NY 11232

837 43rd Street is a 3-story, 9-unit residential building in Borough Park, dating back to 1920 and currently owned by Heng Da Llc. The property has documented several recurring maintenance issues over recent years, most notably regarding heating and hot water systems. Throughout late 2019 and early 2020, there were multiple complaints and inspections related to building-wide heat and hot water problems, though not all inspections were successfully completed.

More recently, in late 2024, there was a water leak complaint that was closed due to an inspection being unable to access the premises. Of particular concern are the building's current violations regarding record-keeping for internet-capable temperature reporting devices, with multiple open violations from 2024 indicating failure to maintain and submit required records. The building has faced periodic issues with various systems and components, including electrical/gas appliances and entry doors, particularly during a cluster of complaints in early 2020.

There are also active Department of Buildings violations from 2023 regarding failure to file external low-pressure inspections for multiple years (2018-2020). Additional concerns include several open violations from 2024 related to encumbrances in public hall areas, including household items, a washing machine, and bicycles. While a bedbug report from 2021 indicated no infestations during the previous reporting period (2019-2020), the building's maintenance history suggests ongoing challenges with maintaining consistent building systems and adhering to regulatory requirements.
