2463 East 21st Street, Brooklyn, NY 11235

The 3-unit, 2-story residential building at 2463 East 21st Street in Sheepshead Bay, owned by Yushan Chen and built in 1940, has experienced several significant maintenance issues over the past years, particularly in 2019. The most notable cluster of problems occurred in July 2019, when multiple emergency complaints were filed regarding heat and hot water issues affecting the entire building, plumbing problems with water supply, and cooking gas concerns.

Subsequently, in December 2019, a non-emergency complaint about wall paint/plaster was filed, though no violations were issued in either case. The building has maintained a consistent record of bedbug reports showing no infestations or re-infestations from 2021 through mid-2025, with the most recent filing indicating zero affected units for the 2023-2024 period. In 2019, the building received several Class C violations that required immediate attention, including issues with heating system access, hot water supply in apartment 2NDFL, window guard compliance in apartment 2NDFL, and gas supply to the kitchen oven range in apartment 2NDFL.

There were also concerns about unauthorized alterations in unit 2FLOOR regarding suspended acoustic drop ceilings. More recently, in early 2022, there were multiple complaints regarding work without a permit, with one violation involving the installation of four AC condensers on the building's wall, though these were resolved without penalties. The property has demonstrated compliance with bedbug reporting requirements in recent years, with all filings showing no infestation issues, and the most recent bedbug report from July 2025 indicates zero affected units and recent compliance with reporting requirements.
