250 Greene Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11238

The 4-story, 9-unit New Law Tenement building at 250 Greene Avenue in Clinton Hill, owned by Stanley Celius and constructed in 1930, has experienced several significant maintenance issues over the past two years. Most notably, as of mid-2025, there are currently open violations in Apartment 4A regarding plumbing (waste line issues in the bathroom), ceiling plaster/paint problems, flooring defects, and a roof leak, all documented during an October 2024 inspection. Apartment 2B has also been identified with multiple open violations from September 2024, including electrical concerns, bathroom maintenance issues, and water leak problems.

The building has had recurring plumbing-related complaints, particularly concerning bathtub/shower fixtures, with the most recent complaint in March 2025 showing an attempted but incomplete HPD inspection. Two emergency issues were reported in June 2025, one involving mold and another concerning the sprinkler system. The property has maintained a clean bedbug record, with zero reported infestations over the past seven reporting periods from 2019 to 2025.

An illegal conversion complaint was filed in June 2025 and remains active, while a previous sweep-related complaint from 2022 was closed with no violations found. Multiple service requests between 2024-2025 involved various maintenance issues, including problems with sinks, water leaks, flooring, and an electric/gas range. While some complaints have been resolved with inspections showing no violations, a pattern of recurring plumbing issues is evident, particularly affecting bathroom fixtures and water systems. A permit for unspecified work was issued in November 2021, but its specific purpose requires further investigation.
