2425 East 22nd Street, Brooklyn, NY 11235

The two-family house at 2425 East 22nd Street in Sheepshead Bay, owned by Tung Tong, has experienced several notable maintenance and safety issues over the past few years. Most recently, in early 2025, there were simultaneous emergency complaints regarding both smoke and carbon monoxide detector issues, though inspectors were unable to gain access to the property during their visits and the cases were closed without resolution.

These are particularly concerning safety concerns given their implications for resident health and safety. The building had a heat and hot water emergency complaint in October 2018, which was resolved promptly by the time of inspection. The property has also been subject to regulatory scrutiny, with a complaint regarding an illegal conversion filed in June 2021, though inspectors were again unable to gain access for verification.

On a more positive note, recent bedbug inspection reports from 2024 and 2025 show no evidence of infestation, with all reports indicating zero infested or eradicated units. The building's owner has had multiple opportunities for inspections over the years, particularly regarding safety equipment like detectors, but has not been available for verification of conditions when inspectors arrive. The property's age (built in 1930) and two-unit configuration are consistent with its historical classification as a two-family house.
