194 29th Street, Brooklyn, NY 11232
The three-unit, two-story New Law Tenement building at 194 29th Street in Sunset Park, owned by David Simon, has experienced recurring heating and plumbing issues over the past five years. Most recently, in November 2024, there was another heat/hot water complaint affecting the entire building, though inspections could not be completed due to lack of access. During 2020-2021, there was a period of heating system violations that extended through several months, including emergency complaints and subsequent violations related to heat/hot water issues.
The building has also faced multiple access issues for inspections, particularly in response to heating system complaints, as documented in records from both 2020 and 2021. The property has undergone various improvement requirements, with the most recent violations from 2024 focusing on safety equipment, specifically the need to repair or replace carbon monoxide detectors in apartment 2F. Prior violations from 2023-2024 included multiple instances requiring repairs to self-closing doors and addressing encumbrances in public hallways. Earlier issues included boiler problems documented in 2020-2021, with inspection records showing an Oath Violation served for defective equipment.
The building underwent several Department of Buildings inspections between 2020-2023, with various complaints about unauthorized work, though most did not result in violations upon inspection. The property has maintained a clean record regarding bedbug infestations, with no reported cases in any of the biannual filings from 2020 to present. While the building has experienced ongoing maintenance issues particularly related to heating systems and door security, recent records suggest improved compliance with general safety and maintenance requirements, though the recurring nature of heating complaints remains concerning. The building's age (constructed in 1930) and classification as a New Law Tenement should be taken into consideration when evaluating its maintenance history.
