This 8-unit, 4-story Old Law Tenement building located at 80 16th Street in Gowanus, built in 1931 and currently owned by Xu Lu, has experienced several significant maintenance issues over recent years. Most notably, there has been a recurring rodent problem, with four rat sighting complaints in June 2025 alone, though a July 2025 inspection passed with no violations. The building has also faced frequent heating and hot water outages, with emergency complaints registered in December 2023 and March 2022, though heat and hot water were reported as restored in both cases. Plumbing issues were prominent in 2019, particularly affecting the fourth-floor apartment (4R), with multiple complaints and violations regarding sinks, faucets, and a radiator. The building has maintained active compliance with rodent inspections, passing the July 2025 inspection after previous issues, and while there have been bedbug-related violations noted in HMC inspections from 2022-2024 regarding the annual reporting requirement, the most recent bedbug report from 2021-2022 indicated no infested units. Multiple inspection records from 2019-2022 show various maintenance issues being addressed, including plumbing repairs, door security, and pest control, with some violations classified as both Open and Closed in the system. The building's permit record shows an electrical work permit was issued in October 2019 but does not provide detailed information on the scope of work performed.
