139 Forbell Street, Brooklyn, NY 11208
The two-story, three-unit building at 139 Forbell Street in Cypress Hills, owned by Md Mazumder Nure Alam, was constructed in 1905 and is currently classified as a "Hereafter Converted Class A" building. The property has experienced significant maintenance challenges, particularly evident in 2018 when multiple emergency service requests were filed, including complaints about heat/hot water issues, plumbing problems, electrical wiring concerns, and various sanitary conditions like mold and pest infestations.
During this period (July-August 2018), several violations were issued related to electrical outlets, plumbing, wall conditions, and pest problems, though some complaints were closed without violations being found. The building has maintained a consistent record of reporting zero bedbug incidents from 2021 through 2025, with regular annual filings indicating no infestation issues during these periods. Current violations from 2018 remain open, including issues related to smoke detector requirements, carbon monoxide detector requirements, gas leak procedures, and various conditions in apartment 2B.
Notably, there were multiple violations documented for apartment 2B in 2018, including problems with the bathroom washbasin, self-closing doors, and paint conditions, though most of these appear to have been addressed or closed in subsequent inspections. The property has passed rodent inspections as recent as 2012, suggesting improvements in pest management. While the building has documented regular bedbug reporting compliance, the outstanding violations from 2018, particularly regarding safety system requirements, merit attention.
