40 Argyle Road, Brooklyn, NY 11218
The 49-unit, 4-story residential building at 40 Argyle Road in Flatbush, owned by David Rose, has experienced several significant maintenance issues in recent years. Most notably, in 2025, there were multiple complaints regarding unsanitary conditions, including rodent sightings (May 2025) and pests (February 2025), with an active investigation into construction lead dust as of December 2024.
The building has faced recurring challenges with basic services, including heat and hot water (January 2025), cooking gas (April 2025), and water systems (June 2025). The property was cited for multiple Housing Maintenance Code violations in December 2024, particularly in apartment B5, including hazards related to lead-based paint, water leaks, and radiator maintenance. The building's external conditions have also been a concern, with the most recent rodent inspection in June 2025 showing "Passed" status after initial "Rat Activity" findings in May 2025.
Despite these challenges, the building has maintained a consistent record of zero bedbug incidents reported in the past six inspection periods. A review of historical data shows some pattern of maintenance issues, including past rodent activity (2013) and a 2021 energy efficiency violation that was dismissed. While recent inspection results show some compliance improvements, the frequency and nature of the complaints suggest ongoing maintenance challenges within the property.
