271 62nd Street, Brooklyn, NY 11220

The three-story, five-unit tenement building at 271 62nd Street in Sunset Park, owned by Teodoro Salazar, has a notable history of maintenance and compliance issues since 2018. Most concerning is the active violation for failing to file annual bedbug reports for four consecutive years (2021-2024), which remains unresolved as of April 2024. The building has also accumulated several Department of Buildings (DOB) violations related to external low pressure inspections, with five outstanding violations from 2018 through 2023, including a recent violation issued in September 2024.

In early 2024, the building experienced multiple emergency maintenance issues, including problems with doors, flooring, and a roof hatch, along with non-emergency issues related to building pavement and garbage storage; however, these complaints were all closed by April 2024. The building's inspection history reveals a pattern of documentation and safety compliance issues. In 2018, multiple violations were recorded regarding safety notices that needed to be posted in the building, including smoke detector requirements, carbon monoxide detector requirements, and gas leak procedures.

Although these violations were closed out, they indicated lapses in building safety communication at that time. The property had a rodent inspection in 2017 which was passed, and there were two permitted jobs issued in 2018 and 2019, though the nature of these jobs is not specified in the records. While some historical violations have been resolved, the building currently has multiple outstanding violations that suggest ongoing compliance challenges, particularly regarding safety system inspections and pest management reporting requirements.
