1363 41st Street, Brooklyn, NY 11218

This two-story, four-unit New Law tenement building at 1363 41st Street in Borough Park, owned by Elliot Frankel, has experienced several maintenance issues in recent years. Most notably, in June 2025, there was a cooking gas violation that required HPD inspection and resulted in violations being issued. Earlier in 2025, there were heating and hot water issues affecting the entire building, and problems with the bathtub/shower plumbing, though these were resolved according to HPD records.

The building has a documented history of heat and hot water problems, with similar issues reported in 2019 and 2025. The property underwent a significant inspection in June 2022, which revealed multiple violations related to building maintenance and safety requirements, including defective self-closing doors and requirements for proper safety notices regarding smoke detectors, carbon monoxide detectors, and the building's heating system. These violations were subsequently certified as corrected.

Other historical issues include unsanitary conditions related to garbage storage in 2022 and pest problems in 2021, though these were resolved without violations being issued. The building has maintained an active bedbug-free record from 2019 through 2024, with no reported infestations in any of the annual reports. The property has one currently active gas utility complaint from April 2025 and had an illegal conversion complaint filed in December 2024, which was closed in January 2025 with an Oath violation served. While the building has faced various maintenance challenges over the years, it's worth noting that many of the issues were addressed through proper channels, with HPD inspections leading to corrections in most cases.
