318 6th Street, Brooklyn, NY 11215

The four-story, 20-unit New Law Tenement building at 318 6th Street in Park Slope, owned by Gail Schattner and constructed in 1923, has experienced several recurring maintenance issues over the past few years, with particular attention required on heating and plumbing systems. The building has faced multiple heat and hot water outages, particularly notable in 2021, when multiple tenants reported problems that were classified as emergency situations. More recent plumbing issues were reported in April 2022, though these complaints were marked as duplicates of existing issues.

The property has also experienced rodent-related concerns, with inspections in 2022 showing rat activity, despite passing inspections in previous years, including a 2022 inspection that did not find evidence of rat activity. Multiple violations were issued in late 2021 regarding safety requirements, including missing notices about carbon monoxide detectors, smoke detectors, and gas leak procedures, as well as an issue with air conditioning units obstructing fire escape egress from third and fourth-story balconies. The building's maintenance history shows a pattern of both emergency and non-emergency issues, with several documented violations related to garbage storage in common areas, though most of these have been addressed and certified as corrected.

Notably, the building has maintained a clean record regarding bedbug infestations, with all annual reports from 2018 through 2024 showing zero affected units. While rat activity was documented through various inspections between 2015 and 2022, the most recent rodent inspections in 2022 resulted in passing results. The property has undergone necessary repairs and addressed multiple violations, as evidenced by certification dates, though some systems continue to require monitoring, particularly the building's heating and plumbing infrastructure.
