441 3rd Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11215
The 5-unit, 4-story Old Law Tenement building at 441 3rd Avenue in Gowanus, owned by Daniel Gefen and constructed in 1931, has experienced several significant maintenance issues in recent years. Most notably, there is an active violation from July 2024 regarding a missing shoe on the fire escape's drop ladder, which is considered a safety concern.
The building has faced recurring pest-related challenges, with the most recent complaint in June 2024 about unsanitary conditions involving pests, though inspectors were unable to gain access to verify the conditions, and previous rodent-related issues were documented in 2018. While bedbug reporting compliance appears to be consistently maintained from 2021 through 2024, with no reported infestations or need for eradication treatments during this period, the building's record shows some pattern of maintenance irregularities.
A violation was issued in April 2023 regarding failure to file the 2022 external low-pressure inspection, though this was dismissed by June 2023, and there was one complaint about site conditions endangering workers in July 2022 which resulted in no violations being found upon inspection. The property has generally passed rodent inspections performed in 2015 and 2018, suggesting that while pest issues have been persistent, they have been addressed when identified, though not always without complications in gaining access for inspections.
