1201 8th Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11215
1201 8th Avenue, a 4-story, 7-unit Old Law Tenement building in South Slope dating back to 1901 and owned by Nawal Innab, has experienced recurring heating system issues in recent years, with emergency heat/hot water complaints recorded in November 2024 and November 2023, as well as earlier incidents in 2021 and 2020. The building underwent significant maintenance challenges in 2023, with multiple complaints investigated by the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD) between September 12 and September 28, 2023, including issues with plumbing (bathtub/shower), electrical outlets/switches, walls (paint/plaster), cabinets, and the presence of pests, though no violations were ultimately issued for these complaints.
The building has shown some concerning patterns regarding safety equipment and structural maintenance, particularly in late 2023 when violations were issued for defective carbon monoxide and smoke detectors in Apartment 5, though these were certified as corrected by December 2023. Earlier violations from 2021 highlighted significant issues in Apartment 1, including problems with roach and mouse infestations, water leaks, and various interior repairs needed, all of which were subsequently addressed.
The building's historical records from 2019-2020 show several complaints related to building safety, including a blocked fire escape passageway (resulting in a $312 penalty), though most building permit-related inspections revealed no violations. Recent bedbug reporting from 2024 shows no infestation cases, and the building's regular environmental inspections have generally indicated proper maintenance of pest control measures.
