1145 39th Street, Brooklyn, NY 11218

1145 39th Street is a 6-unit, 3-story New Law Tenement building located in Borough Park, constructed in 1931 and currently owned by Chaim Friedman. The property has experienced recurring issues with heating and water systems, with significant complaints recorded in early 2025 regarding water leaks, and heating problems affecting the entire building in January 2025. The building's systems maintenance record shows ongoing challenges with the boiler, as evidenced by multiple complaints between 2019 and 2025, including an active violation from July 2023 related to various boiler deficiencies that incurred a $625 penalty.

Security and access issues have been documented, including recent HPD inspection challenges in 2025 where inspectors were unable to gain access to evaluate complaints. The property has a documented history of maintenance violations that require attention to basic safety and security infrastructure. Notable violations include the improper repair or replacement of a broken glass IV-1 frame creating cut hazards in the first story (2023), and issues with a self-closing door mechanism in the entrance.

Multiple complaints regarding the building's intercom and buzzer system were filed in December 2023, though these did not result in any violations. While the building has maintained regular bedbug reporting compliance from 2021 through 2025 with no reported infestations, the property has experienced periodic issues with unsanitary conditions, including pest problems in mid-2023. Despite these challenges, the building's recent bedbug reporting history shows consistent zero infestation rates over the past four reporting periods.
