710 61st Street, Brooklyn, NY 11220

The two-family house at 710 61st Street in Sunset Park, owned by Concetta Di Talia and built in 1920, has experienced several significant maintenance issues in recent years, particularly affecting the second-floor apartment. Most notably, a December 2023 inspection revealed multiple open violations including infestation of roaches, defective carbon monoxide detectors, and various repair needs such as broken floor tiles, leaky kitchen faucets, and mold conditions in the bathroom affecting approximately 9 square feet on multiple surfaces.

The building has also experienced recurring heat and water-related issues, with emergency complaints in August 2023 and December 2023 regarding water leaks and hot water problems. The first-floor apartment has documented repair needs as well, including plaster and paint issues in the bathroom and kitchen as noted in August 2023 violations.

Additional building records show some external issues from 2022-2023, including complaints about illegal signage and a potentially unauthorized curb cut, though most of these were resolved or resulted in no violation being found. The property appears to be dealing with ongoing maintenance challenges, particularly in the second-floor apartment, with multiple active violations as of December 2023 that require attention to address both safety systems (carbon monoxide detectors) and habitability concerns (mold, pests, and various repair needs).
