146 Lawrence Street, Brooklyn, NY 11201
146 Lawrence Street is a 4-story, 14-unit residential building located in Downtown Brooklyn, owned by Albert Laboz and constructed in 1920. The building has experienced persistent maintenance issues in recent months, with multiple emergency plumbing complaints reported between May 2025 and earlier in the year, including problems with water supply and heating systems. Despite these complaints being labeled as emergencies, HPD inspectors have repeatedly been unable to gain access for proper evaluation, leading to closed complaints due to non-access.
The property has maintained a generally concerning pattern of maintenance issues, as evidenced by multiple 311 complaints, including food establishment violations in 2024 (food safety issues), and two complaints related to unpermitted tattooing in 2021. The building has been subject to rodent activity as recently as 2023, with multiple bait applications documented, though a bedbug inspection report from 2021-2022 showed no infestation. The property has undergone several inspections under Local Law 188/17 Compliance Inspections, with no violations warranted at the time of evaluation in 2023-2024.
A complaint regarding a bulging/cracked wall/retaining wall was investigated in March 2025 but was determined to have no violation. In 2022, an illegal business accessory sign violation resulted in a $625 penalty, though this has since been resolved. The building's maintenance and inspection history suggests ongoing challenges with communication and access for inspections, particularly regarding plumbing and heating complaints, though there have been no documented infestations or major structural issues noted in recent years.
