1228 44th Street, Brooklyn, NY 11219

The 4-unit, 4-story residential building at 1228 44th Street in Borough Park, owned by Solomon Leifer and constructed in 2013, currently has multiple open violations that merit attention. Most notably, there are recurring violations related to bedbug reporting requirements, with the most recent being a Class A violation from April 2024 and a similar violation from March 2023, indicating non-compliance with the Housing Maintenance Code's annual bedbug reporting requirements.

The building also has significant safety concerns, including an open Class C violation from July 2023 regarding defective self-closing doors at the entrance to Apartment 4, and an open Class C violation from May 2021 concerning defective self-closing doors at the entrance to Apartment 3. Other open violations include a July 2023 Class B violation concerning obstruction of public hallways with baby strollers on the first story.

The building's record also shows several resolved violations from 2021 that involved safety and notification requirements, including the need to post proper floor signs, display the building's registration number, and provide carbon monoxide detector requirements in common areas. All of these previous violations were certified as corrected by July 2021, particularly a violation regarding gas leak procedures that required proper posting in common areas. While the building's historical records show some previous bedbug-related compliance (with reports filed in 2022 and 2021 indicating no infested units), the persistent recent violations suggest ongoing challenges with maintaining full compliance with housing regulations.
