740 Myrtle Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11205
740 Myrtle Avenue is a 6-unit, 4-story Old Law Tenement building constructed in 1931 and currently owned by Moshe Gluck. The property has experienced persistent maintenance and access issues, particularly regarding door/window problems, with multiple complaints filed between 2023 and 2025. Notably, there have been recurring complaints about water leaks (February 2024), sewage issues (February 2024), a building-wide heat/hot water problem (January 2024), and multiple door-related concerns that inspectors were unable to access.
A pattern of unsanitary conditions emerged in 2024, including issues with garbage/recycling storage. The building inspection in October 2024 revealed several safety-related violations, including missing notices for carbon monoxide detector requirements, smoke detector requirements, and gas leak procedures, though most of these violations were subsequently addressed. Recent history shows some concerning patterns in building maintenance, particularly between 2024-2025, with emergency complaints about doors and unsanitary conditions. The building has experienced periodic rodent issues, with inspections showing rat activity in 2022 and 2023, though a June 2024 inspection passed.
The property has undergone several inspections and investigations, including a 2020 complaint about work without a permit, though inspectors were unable to gain access. Bedbug reports for the past two filing periods (2023-2024 and 2022-2023) showed no infestations. An environmental violation from 2021 noted disrepair of a wood fence creating dangerous conditions. Despite these challenges, there have been improvements in certain areas, with some violations being resolved and no recent bedbug or major pest complaints.
