280 7th Street, Brooklyn, NY 11215
The three-story, three-unit Old Law Tenement building at 280 7th Street in Park Slope, owned by Louisa Olsen and built in 1899, has experienced several significant maintenance issues over recent years with implications for resident comfort and safety. Most notably, there is an ongoing pattern of non-compliance with bedbug reporting requirements, with open violations recorded annually from 2021 through 2024, indicating the building has not properly filed its mandatory annual bedbug reports as required under Housing Maintenance Code (HMC) regulations.
The building's exterior lighting has also been a concern; a June 2019 B-class violation remains open regarding inadequate lighting at the front entranceway, specifically requiring a minimum of 100 watts to be maintained from sunset to sunrise. While there was one non-emergency complaint regarding lack of lighting in April 2019, this was resolved within two weeks.
On a more positive note, the building has passed rodent inspections conducted in November 2019 and April 2018, suggesting no significant pest control issues in recent years beyond the bedbug reporting violations. The most pressing concerns appear to be related to documentation compliance and outdoor lighting rather than structural or maintenance issues affecting the interiors.
