101 Bay 40th Street, Brooklyn, NY 11214
The two-family residential building at 101 Bay 40th Street in Gravesend, owned by Esteban Bernalfarfan and built in 1928, has faced several notable compliance and maintenance issues in recent years. Most recently, in July 2023, the building experienced heating/hot water and ventilation system problems, though inspections by the Department of Housing Preservation and Development found no violations.
The property has also undergone multiple Department of Buildings inspections related to Local Law 188/17 Compliance in early 2024, with access being denied on two occasions and violations served in another case. A significant 2023 complaint regarding possible illegal conversion resulted in the inspector being unable to gain access. Earlier compliance issues include a construction-related violation from December 2021 regarding grade/watercourse changes.
Encouragingly, the building has maintained a clean record regarding bedbug infestations, with reports from 2022-2023 and 2023-2024 showing zero affected units, and no extermination or re-infestation cases were recorded. The property’s current status, as of 2025, shows a recent Oath Violation served in May 2025, though specific details about this current complaint are not available. The building's history suggests ongoing regulatory compliance challenges, particularly regarding access for inspections and response to violation notices, while basic habitation issues like heating and ventilation systems have been addressed though not always resolved without incident.
