250 North 6th Street, Brooklyn, NY 11211

250 North 6th Street, a 5-story, 20-unit New Law Tenement building constructed in 1910 in Williamsburg and currently owned by Alex Kaskel, has experienced significant infrastructure challenges in recent months. Most notably, in March 2025, there was a heat and hot water outage affecting the entire building, marking a continuing pattern of HVAC issues as similar complaints were documented throughout February 2025. The building also faced electrical problems during this period, with multiple reports of power outages. More recently, in June 2025, a complaint regarding unsanitary garbage/recycling storage conditions was recorded.

The property has several active violations that warrant attention. As of September 2024, there are open violations related to the failure to file 2023 External Low-Pressure inspections. Previous building-wide inspections have identified recurring issues, including defective window guards in public areas (2023-2024) and a range of maintenance concerns in Apartment 15, including issues with windows, flooring, and water leaks (2022). While multiple safety inspections in 2023-2024 resulted in "No Violation Warranted" findings, there remain three open Class C violations from 2024 regarding window guard compliance.

The building's maintenance history shows some attention to pest control, with no bedbug infestations reported in the past three years, though rodent inspections have shown mixed results, including one "Passed" inspection in 2023 and previous failures. The Department of Buildings has responded to various complaints between 2022-2024 regarding unauthorized work, electrical wiring concerns, and tenant safety inspections, though most were found to have no violations. Recent records indicate the building underwent permitted work in 2022 for electrical and plumbing systems, though specific details of these improvements are not documented in the available data. The building's location, age, and recent service requests suggest ongoing infrastructure challenges, particularly regarding heating, hot water, and electrical systems, though the precise nature and extent of these issues require further investigation. The property has maintained compliance in terms of pest control through regular reporting periods, with no documented infestations since 2019.
