1118 63rd Street, Brooklyn, NY 11219

This 4-unit, 2-story building at 1118 63rd Street in Borough Park, owned by Chun Guo Chen, has a documented history of maintenance issues concentrated primarily between 2020-2021. The property experienced multiple reported problems in April 2020, including unsanitary conditions related to pests, plumbing issues with radiators, appliance problems with an electric/gas range, and safety concerns regarding broken or missing window guards. These complaints led to several Housing Maintenance Code violations and complaints, particularly affecting apartment 2R.

Notable open violations from May 2020 include issues with pests (specifically cockroach infestation), multiple missing baseboard heater covers, defective window guards, and carbon monoxide detecting device problems. While the building initially had concerns about bedbugs between 2021-2022, recent bedbug reports filed in 2023-2024 show no infested units or past infestation, suggesting this issue has been effectively managed. The building has also been subject to two illegal conversion complaint investigations in 2018 and 2019, though inspectors were unable to gain access during both attempts.

The property has had three consecutive annual bedbug report filings (2021-2024) showing no units affected, and while there were multiple violations in 2020, many of these were closed by July 2020. It's worth noting that all the historical pest and safety issues appear to have been addressed, as indicated by the absence of recent complaints or violations in these areas. The most recent inspection and violations data (through 2024) shows no active complaints, though there remains one open violation from May 2020 regarding inspection certificate display requirements in the public hall.
