2416 64th Street, Brooklyn, NY 11204

The three-story, six-unit tenement building at 2416 64th Street in Borough Park, owned by Ray Chen, has experienced several maintenance issues in recent years. Most notably, in mid-2024, the building faced violations for mold, with the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD) issuing citations that remain open as of now. The building has had recurring issues with mold, as evidenced by multiple complaints throughout 2023-2024, including a significant infestation of vermin and waterbugs in 2F reported in June 2024.

The property has also experienced intermittent heat and hot water issues, with emergency complaints in October 2023 and December 2023, though in each case, tenants reported that services were restored by the time inspectors arrived. The building's maintenance history shows consistent attention to various infrastructure problems, including electrical issues (outlet and switch problems), floor maintenance, and appliance concerns (electric/gas range). Several important building systems have required attention, including entrance door repairs and work on self-closing mechanisms for various doors.

While the building has passed recent rodent inspections in 2022 and 2024, indicating no current infestation problems, the building has not reported any bedbug infestations in the past several years according to official records from 2021-2024. A 2023 violation related to low-pressure inspection filing was dismissed by the Department of Buildings. The property, built in 1927, has been subject to various Housing Maintenance Code violations, including issues with bathroom floor tiles and self-closing doors, though many of these violations have been resolved or closed out following necessary repairs.
