398 Lorimer Street, Brooklyn, NY 11206
The 32-unit, 6-story New Law Tenement building at 398 Lorimer Street in Williamsburg, owned by Dimitrios Paliouras, has experienced recurring heat and hot water issues over recent years, with three documented complaints in 2022 and 2025, affecting either the entire building or individual apartments. The most recent incident in April 2025 required HPD intervention but was resolved quickly, with heat and hot water confirmed restored during the inspection.
The building has undergone various maintenance challenges, particularly during 2022, including plumbing issues (basin/sink), and multiple complaints regarding flooring, stairs, and appliance problems, though many inspections faced access issues. The property has maintained an active compliance record for bedbug reporting, with zero infestations reported in the past three years (2022-2025). Significant safety-related violations were documented in 2023, including a missing GFCI outlet in Apartment 23 and defective self-closing doors that required repair.
Two benchmarking violations from 2019 were dismissed following successful challenges. Rodent control measures appear effective, with a passing inspection in November 2019. The building's maintenance history shows a pattern of heating system challenges, though these issues have generally been promptly addressed when reported, and most other documented violations have been resolved or closed through appropriate corrective actions.
