4013 8th Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11232
4013 8th Avenue is a 4-story, 6-unit New Law Tenement building constructed in 1925, currently owned by Lilan Wu. The property has experienced several maintenance and safety issues in recent years, with the most pressing concerns being two open violations from August 2024 related to unsanitary conditions, including pests and improper garbage storage. The building has a history of access issues during inspections, as evidenced by multiple complaints where inspectors were unable to gain entry.
Building safety concerns have included a broken window guard in 2022, though no violations were cited following inspection, and a heat/hot water complaint in 2018 that also could not be verified due to access issues. The property has faced significant regulatory scrutiny regarding unauthorized modifications, particularly concerning the cellar level. Multiple complaints and violations from 2020-2024 reference unpermitted work creating additional dwelling units in the cellar, including two Class A apartments with kitchens and bathrooms, for which the owner has received multiple fines and penalties totaling over $8,000.
Recent building inspections in 2024 noted violations regarding a broken cornice and improper storage in public areas. While the building has maintained a pest-free record according to the bedbug reporting system since at least 2019, the most recent 311 complaints in 2024 suggest ongoing maintenance challenges. The property has also had issues with fire escape obstruction, though recent complaints indicate this may have been resolved. The current bedbug inspection report for the period ending October 2024 shows zero infested units, maintaining a consistent pattern of no infestations since 2019.
