1522 Eastern Parkway, Brooklyn, NY 11233

1522 Eastern Parkway is a 4-story, 14-unit New Law Tenement building constructed in 1910 and currently owned by Mark Weinberger. The building has experienced persistent issues with heating systems, as evidenced by multiple heat and hot water complaints throughout 2025, with three separate incidents reported in May 2025 alone, involving both apartment-specific and building-wide problems. The property has also faced recent electrical concerns, with violations issued in May 2025 for lighting and wiring issues. Historical maintenance records show recurring heat and hot water problems, particularly notable are five separate complaints between January and February 2025, and an additional building-wide heat issue reported in January 2024.

The building has also faced various safety and maintenance challenges, including a recently reported broken window guard in May 2025, though this particular complaint was inspected and determined not to violate HPD housing laws. Other infrastructure issues have been documented, such as a slow water leak reported in January 2025, and historical violations related to bedbug reporting requirements in 2021 through 2023. While the most recent bedbug reports from 2023-2024 indicate zero infested units, the building has experienced periods requiring attention to pest control. Compliance inspections show improved adherence to basic safety requirements, with violations issued and subsequently addressed in 2022 related to posting necessary safety notices for smoke detectors, carbon monoxide detectors, and building registration information. The property has undergone multiple rodent inspections, with mixed results between 2009 and 2017.

Though two inspections showed passed results, there were notable instances of rat activity in 2016, and other failures were recorded for unspecified reasons. The building's violation history includes various administrative code violations related to safety signage and bedbug reporting, though most have been resolved through certification. The most pressing current issues appear to be related to heating systems and electrical infrastructure, with multiple recent complaints requiring attention. The building's age and history suggest ongoing maintenance requirements, though recent bedbug reports indicate this particular issue has been effectively managed. While there are several violations on record, many have been addressed through appropriate channels, indicating some responsiveness to regulatory requirements.
