265 62nd Street, Brooklyn, NY 11220

265 62nd Street is a 3-story, 6-unit residential building constructed in 1914 in Sunset Park, owned by Mathew Kurupanadan. The building has demonstrated various maintenance and safety issues over recent years, most notably a pattern of inspection access denial in both 2019 and 2021 for emergency safety complaints related to smoke detectors. In 2019, multiple violations were identified in the 3rd-floor apartment (3F) including defects in the door frame, smoke detector, and carbon monoxide detector, though some of these violations appear to have been addressed by August 2019.

The building has also experienced plumbing issues, specifically concerning a basin/sink in 2019, and window safety concerns. The property has maintained consistent bedbug reporting compliance from 2021 through 2024, with all filings indicating zero infested units, suggesting effective pest management protocols are currently in place. Recent HPD records from 2024 show only one violation related to the filing of the annual bedbug report.

The building's maintenance history shows periodic issues with public safety features, including broken window guards and stair safety concerns, though many of these violations have been addressed and closed. The most recent rodent inspection in 2018 failed for "Other Reasons," while a 2017 inspection passed. While the building has had its share of maintenance challenges, the situation appears to have stabilized somewhat in recent years, with no major clusters of violations or complaints in the most recent reporting periods.
