45 Kingston Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11213

The 6-unit, 3-story New Law Tenement building at 45 Kingston Avenue in Bedford-Stuyvesant, owned by Alexander Horn and constructed in 1910, has experienced several recurring maintenance issues in recent years. Most notably, there has been a pattern of heating and plumbing problems, with multiple complaints in April 2025 regarding heat and hot water outages, sewage issues, and various plumbing problems affecting toilets, bathtubs/showers, and sinks.

HPD inspections in March 2025 also revealed non-violating conditions for plumbing and heat complaints, while earlier that month, violations were issued for unsanitary conditions and a power outage. The building has a documented history of electrical issues, including a power outage and no lighting complaint in January 2025, and a power outage complaint in March 2025, all classified as emergencies. The property has undergone multiple inspections and received several violations since 2022, including a 2023 violation for a broken street entrance door lock, and multiple complaints pertaining to pest infestations, lead paint hazards, and rodent issues.

Specifically, in 2022, there were significant violations in Apartment 3R regarding lead paint hazards and pest infestation (roaches), and in 2023, there were inspections for bedbugs which recorded no units affected. The building's Maintenance Code Violations show a progression of issues, with some requiring immediate attention, such as the August 2022 violations for rodent infestation in the cellar and encumbrances in the public hall. несмотря на эти проблемы, здание регулярно проходит инспекции по контролю за грызунами, и последний осмотр в июне 2024 года прошел успешно.
