1050 39th Street, Brooklyn, NY 11219

The three-story, three-unit residential building at 1050 39th Street in Borough Park, owned by Herschel Grun, has a somewhat concerning recent history regarding pest-related issues, though with some positive developments. Most notably, there have been multiple rodent-related complaints, with the most recent occurring in August 2023, though subsequent inspections by the Department of Health and Mental Hygiene either found no violations or the property passed inspection, as was the case with the September 2023 rodent inspection.

In April 2022, both HPD and DOHMH were called to investigate concerns about unsanitary conditions related to garbage and recycling storage, but no violations were found. The building has maintained a clean record regarding bedbugs in recent years, with the most recent inspection reports (2024-2022) showing zero infested dwelling units, and with annual bedbug reports consistently filed as required under Housing Maintenance Code regulations.

A Department of Buildings complaint regarding work without a permit was filed in December 2020, but this was resolved with inspectors finding no violations at the time of their visit. While the building has experienced recurring rodent-related issues, it's worth noting that all recent rodent inspections (2022-2023) have been cleared without any violations, suggesting that while the complaints have been persistent, the property management has been responsive to addressing the concerns when they arise.
