65 Wyckoff Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11237
The three-story, six-unit New Law Tenement building at 65 Wyckoff Avenue in Bushwick, owned by Tom Rosenberg and constructed in 1931, has experienced significant ongoing maintenance issues over recent years, with the most pressing concerns being water-related problems and unsanitary conditions. Most recently, in December 2024, there were heat and hot water complaints affecting the entire building, though inspections found no violations. The building has a documented pattern of water-related issues, with multiple complaints about damp spots between 2022 and 2023, including two instances in early 2023.
Additionally, unsanitary conditions have been a recurring theme, with violations recorded in 2022 for mold and garbage/recycling storage issues, and later inspections in 2023 revealing more substantial mold problems in apartment 3L, along with concerns about pest infestations. Recent safety concerns include a December 2024 violation in apartment 2R for missing smoke and carbon monoxide detectors, though these were certified as corrected in January 2025. The building's outdoor conditions have also had documented problems, with multiple rodent inspections showing consistent rat activity between 2021 and 2025, with the most recent inspections in early 2025 confirming ongoing rat presence.
The property has maintained an active bedbug management program, though recent filings from 2023 and 2024 report no current infestations, suggesting previous issues (noted in 2020-2021) have been resolved. Historical records from 2020 show concerns about egress issues and possible illegal hotel rooms, though no violations were found upon inspection. The building has also experienced various interior maintenance issues that have required attention, including problems with ceiling paint/plaster in 2022, a broken stair tread in the public hall noted in 2023, and concerns about an air conditioner unit installed at a fire escape window in 2022, which was ultimately certified corrected in 2024. While many complaints have been closed with various outcomes, these recurring issues suggest ongoing maintenance challenges within the building.
