230 Schenectady Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11213
The 6-unit, 3-story New Law Tenement at 230 Schenectady Avenue in Crown Heights, built in 1907, has experienced several notable maintenance and safety issues in recent years. Most concerning are the recurring heat and hot water problems reported in March 2024, where HPD inspectors were unable to gain access to verify conditions. A more recent electrical wiring complaint from March 2025 was marked as defective/exposed.
The building has shown persistent sanitation challenges, with multiple violations and complaints between 2022 and 2024 related to garbage and recycling storage, including two instances in 2024 that resulted in violations being issued. There were also several building safety inspections in 2024 related to fire escapes and door issues, though no violations were recorded for these inspections. The property has documented compliance with bedbug reporting requirements, showing zero infestation cases between 2021 and 2024.
However, there was evidence of rat activity noted during rodent inspections in 2018 and 2022. The building's maintenance history indicates some structural concerns, with violations issued in 2022 for broken masonry at the building front, though these were ultimately closed. Recent records show four active violations (issued June 30, 2023) for failure to file external low pressure inspection reports for the years 2018-2021, while a 2019 inspection revealed multiple construction-related violations, including inadequate dust protection and unsupported gas meter issues, which were subsequently resolved. The building's ownership structure is held by 2626 Lewis LLC, with multiple permits issued between 2019 and 2021 for various maintenance and repair work.
