41 Sheffield Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11207
The three-story, six-unit New Law Tenement building at 41 Sheffield Avenue in Cypress Hills, currently owned by Cank Management LLC, has experienced persistent maintenance challenges since at least 2019. Most notably, there is an ongoing rodent infestation problem, with multiple complaints and rodent activity confirmed in 2024-2025 inspections. Apartment 1R has numerous active housing maintenance code violations from 2024, including issues with mice and roach infestations, water leaks, mold, and various repair needs in the bathroom, though some violations from July 2024 were marked as closed.
The building has also faced significant plumbing issues, with multiple emergency water leak complaints in 2025, and at least one related to heavy flow water problems that resulted in violations. Additionally, the property has several open violations related to failure to conduct required external low-pressure inspections between 2018-2023, and one from September 2024 regarding this inspection. There were multiple rodent-related service requests to the Department of Health and Mental Hygiene in 2025, though these were referred to another agency due to jurisdictional issues.
The building experienced water leakage problems documented through both 311 service requests and Housing Maintenance Code Complaints between March and June 2025. Historical records from 2020 show a complaint about building shaking/vibrating affecting structural stability, though no violations were found at that time. While there have been two years recorded with zero bedbug reports (2019-2021), this may not fully represent the building's pest history.
