1625 Eastern Parkway, Brooklyn, NY 11233

1625 Eastern Parkway is a 4-story, 12-unit New Law Tenement building constructed in 1910 and currently owned by Chesky Engel. The building has experienced recurring heat and hot water issues, with five documented complaints in 2024-2025 alone, all of which were classified as emergency situations. Each time, while HPD responded to the complaints, occupants reported that heat and hot water had been restored by the time of inspection.

Prior to these recent issues, the building faced significant maintenance challenges between 2021-2023, particularly in apartment 2A, where violations included mice infestation, lack of hot water, and plaster/paint defects. Apartment 4A also reported multiple violations in 2021, including a roach infestation and various maintenance issues related to plaster, paint, and roof leaks. The building's maintenance record shows some positive developments, with no bedbug infestations reported in the past three years (2021-2024), and the 2023-2024 bedbug report confirms zero infested units.

However, there were rat activity and compliance failures noted in inspections from 2018-2019, indicating past rodent issues. The property has maintained compliance with bedbug reporting requirements since 2021, consistently showing zero infested units across multiple reporting periods. While recent heat and hot water issues remain a significant concern, the building's other maintenance violations from 2021 have been addressed, as evidenced by their closed status.
