4505 Surf Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11224
4505 Surf Avenue, a 12-unit, 3-story building constructed in 1928 and owned by Pinches Meisels, has experienced recurring heat and hot water issues in early 2025, with emergency complaints filed and subsequently resolved, suggesting potential ongoing maintenance concerns with building systems. The property has also faced pest management challenges, with multiple unsanitary condition complaints related to pests filed between May 2025 and 2024, though no violations were documented.
Maintenance and safety issues have been documented consistently since 2022, including multiple complaints regarding toilet plumbing problems and sewage issues in April 2022, as well as more recent concerns in 2024 involving floor repairs, garbage storage, and door/window maintenance. The building's maintenance history shows a pattern of reactive rather than proactive responses to issues, particularly in 2024 when multiple violations were recorded regarding self-closing doors in the public hall and for specific units, as well as an encumbrance violation in the 3rd story.
While the building has filed bedbug reports between 2023 and 2024 showing no infestation cases, the presence of multiple violation notices related to unsanitary conditions and pest management suggests ongoing challenges with maintaining proper living conditions. The property has generally resolved its violations and complaints, as indicated by the "Close" status on most recent cases, though one B violation from 2022 regarding encumbrances on the 3rd story remains listed as "Open."
