Augrented Insights Report for 4317 8th Avenue

The 15-unit, 4-story New Law Tenement building at 4317 8th Avenue in Borough Park, owned by Benny Fong, has experienced recurring issues with basic services over the past two years. Between March 2024 and May 2025, there have been multiple complaints about heat and hot water outages affecting the entire building, though in several instances, services were reportedly restored before inspections could be completed. Electrical problems have also persisted, with multiple complaints about inadequate lighting, including a significant incident in April 2025.

The building is currently facing three open violations as of 2024, including a defective fire escape drop ladder, a bedbug report filing requirement, and a fire door self-closing device issue. The property has a documented history of safety and maintenance concerns, including various housing maintenance code violations. In 2023, several self-closing door issues were identified, affecting fire safety systems in both the building's entrance and individual units.

There are also ongoing concerns about carbon monoxide detection systems, particularly in unit 4D. The Department of Buildings records show multiple violation notices related to construction safety and building maintenance between 2019 and 2020, including issues with sidewalk shed installation, debris management, and building facade maintenance. While some violations from this period were dismissed or resolved, they indicate a pattern of maintenance challenges. Recent bedbug reporting for the period of 2021-2022 showed no identified infestations, and a 2012 rodent inspection was passed, though these records are now several years old.
