1641 56th Street, Brooklyn, NY 11204
This three-story, six-unit residential building at 1641 56th Street in Borough Park, owned by Gitty Kahan, was constructed in 1931 as a New Law Tenement.
The property has experienced several maintenance issues in recent months, with multiple complaints filed in September 2023 regarding pest-related unsanitary conditions, as well as concerns about electric/gas ranges and wall conditions, though inspections found no violations in these cases. More significantly, an October 2023 inspection revealed multiple open violations related to building safety requirements, including defective self-closing doors at the vestibule and front hall, and missing safety notices regarding carbon monoxide detectors, heating system access, gas leak procedures, smoke detector requirements, and building registration information.
A previous indication of bedbug reporting requirements from 2022-2023 was marked closed, though recent filings through February 2024 show no evidence of infestation during that period. The building has had consistent attention from housing authorities, with all recent complaints being addressed, though several open violations remain regarding safety notifications.
