1231 65th Street, Brooklyn, NY 11219
The three-story, four-unit residential building at 1231 65th Street in Borough Park, owned by Henry Sherlis and constructed in 1992, has experienced several notable issues over the past few years. The most concerning ongoing matter is an open Class A violation regarding the failure to file annual bedbug reports, which has persisted since at least 2021, with the most recent citation in March 2024. The building has had multiple safety concerns in 2023, including the improper installation of door stoppers preventing self-closing doors at both the building entrance and vestibule on the first story, though these violations were closed following inspection.
Two health-related incidents were reported in 2023-2024: a mold complaint in August 2023 (classified as an emergency) and a rat sighting in April 2024, though both were investigated and found to have no resulting violations. The property has undergone regular inspections, passing a rodent inspection in April 2024. The building's violation history shows a pattern of maintenance and compliance issues that suggest ongoing challenges with property upkeep.
While some violations have been promptly addressed and closed, the recurrent nature of the bedbug report violation, now spanning over four years, stands out as an incomplete compliance issue. Recent inspections by both the Department of Housing Preservation and Development and the Department of Health and Mental Hygiene have generally resulted in no violations being found, indicating some level of responsiveness to service requests. An August 2023 complaint regarding work without a permit was investigated and found to warrant no violation.
