569 Gates Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11221
The 4-unit, 4-story Old Law Tenement building at 569 Gates Avenue in Bedford-Stuyvesant, owned by Courage Atekha and constructed in 1931, has experienced recurring heating and hot water issues in recent years, with the most recent complaints occurring in January 2025, August 2023, and February 2023, all involving the entire building. In each of these instances, while HPD responded to the complaints, tenants reported that heat and hot water had been restored by the time of inspection.
The building has also faced several significant maintenance challenges, including a notable C-class violation in August 2022 regarding the heating system's locked access door, and hot water issues specifically affecting Apartment 2 that summer. Prior to these incidents, the building grappled with a mouse infestation in Apartment 2 in October 2021.
The property has demonstrated compliance with New York City's bedbug reporting requirements from 2020 through 2024, consistently reporting zero infested units, and passed recent rodent inspections in 2022 and 2024. Historical records show early signs of pest issues, with rat activity documented in 2014, but these problems appear to have been resolved in subsequent years, with the most recent inspections showing compliance.
