1238 50th Street, Brooklyn, NY 11219

The two-story, three-unit residential building at 1238 50th Street in Borough Park, owned by Sally Lax and built in 1940, has experienced several notable events in its recent history, particularly during 2019. March 2019 was a particularly active month for complaints, with multiple issues reported and investigated by the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD), including door problems, water supply issues, mold, sanitation concerns, and various maintenance matters affecting stairs, ceilings, and garbage storage.

Some violations were issued during this period, though specific details can be found on the HPD website. The building has also had consistent monitoring of bedbug-related compliance, with annual reports filed between 2021 and 2024 showing no infestations during the reporting periods. Recent inspections have confirmed compliance with bedbug reporting requirements.

While there were some maintenance issues identified in 2019, such as a broken window in Apartment 1 and various door and sanitation concerns, these violations were subsequently addressed and closed. More recent records from 2023-2024 indicate compliance with housing maintenance codes, and there have been no major reported issues or violations in the past two years. The building's systems show regular maintenance, with specific references to repairs including door refitting, window replacement, and floor repairs, though details on the current condition of these items are not specified in the available data.
