808 8th Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11215

The 8-unit, 4-story New Law Tenement building at 808 8th Avenue in Park Slope, owned by Daniel Janzen, has experienced several significant maintenance issues, particularly during 2020 when multiple Housing Maintenance Code violations were recorded, including problems with water leaks, paint and plaster damage, and electrical lighting issues. A major cluster of complaints occurred in March-June 2020, particularly affecting apartment 3R, which documented water leak problems, ceiling and wall damage, and lighting fixture concerns that resulted in various violation notices.

The building underwent construction work during this period, leading to several Department of Buildings complaints regarding work contrary to approved plans and safety concerns, with some violations remaining active until resolved. Notably, a July 2019 violation related to the boiler system and HVAC flue conditions was still showing as active in 2020. More recently, the building has maintained better compliance with housing regulations.

The bedbug reporting for the past three years (2019-2024) shows no infestations or eradication efforts recorded in any of the annual filings, with the most recent reports (2023-2024) indicating zero infested units. The property also shows active efforts to address previous violations, with the most notable active ECB violation from 2019-2020 concerning HVAC and boiler issues being worked on, with penalties associated and a certified correction date set for 2024. As of 2025, there have been no new documented maintenance issues or violations in the past three years, suggesting improved building management and maintenance practices.
