1978 60th Street, Brooklyn, NY 11204
The three-unit, two-story building at 1978 60th Street in Borough Park, owned by David Dvash, has experienced persistent maintenance and health challenges since at least 2019. Most recently, the property has faced multiple rodent-related issues, with documented rat sightings and inspections showing ongoing rodent activity from late 2024 through 2025. In early 2025, the building received two housing maintenance violations related to garbage/recycling storage conditions.
A significant concern emerged in 2022 regarding potential illegal cellar conversion, with active Environmental Control Board (ECB) violations indicating unauthorized occupancy and installation of kitchen facilities with a resulting $6,250 penalty. The building has also had door maintenance issues, with multiple violations recorded in 2022-2023 regarding defective self-closing doors at building entrances and vestibules, though some of these violations have been marked as closed. Additional historical issues include a heat and hot water emergency in April 2023 that was reportedly resolved, and pest-related problems including a 2019 complaint regarding insects.
The property's bedbug reporting history shows no infestations recorded between late 2020 and late 2021, though there are current open violations related to bedbug reporting requirements as of 2024. While there have been several inspections and service requests regarding rodent activity, most recent inspections have shown some progress, with the most recent March 2025 inspection recording bait application as part of the extermination efforts. The building's age (constructed in 1930) and its classification as a NEW LAW TENEMENT suggest it is subject to specific maintenance and reporting requirements under New York City's Housing Maintenance Code.
