56 Bay 40th Street, Brooklyn, NY 11214
The two-story, four-unit residential building at 56 Bay 40th Street in Gravesend, owned by Chun Lok, has experienced several maintenance issues over the past two years, with the most recent occurrences happening in March 2025. Notable incidents include a brief period without heat and hot water in March 2025 (quickly resolved), and multiple complaints in September 2024 regarding door/window problems and wall conditions, though inspections were either completed with no violations found or access was not granted.
The building's environmental conditions have been generally stable, with a rodent inspection in March 2025 resulting in a passing grade. The property has maintained a clean bedbug record, with consistent filings showing zero infested units, zero eradicated units, and zero re-infested units from 2021 through 2025.
There were two Housing Maintenance Code Violations noted in 2022 and 2023 regarding the annual bedbug report filing requirement, but these appear to have been resolved. An inspection by the Department of Health and Mental Hygiene in March 2025 found no violations related to a reported unsanitary pigeon condition. While the building has faced various maintenance issues requiring external inspections, most have been promptly addressed and resolved, with the current bedbug-free status indicating good pest management practices.
