1323 Hancock Street, Brooklyn, NY 11237
1323 Hancock Street is a three-story, six-unit New Law Tenement building constructed in 1907 in Bushwick, currently owned by Joel Stauber. The property has experienced recurring heat and hot water issues, with multiple complaints filed between 2020 and 2023, including two recent incidents in October 2023 and another in January 2024 that resulted in violations being issued by the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD). The building has also faced various maintenance challenges, including a power outage in late 2022, pest infestations (including recent mold and pest complaints in January 2024), and issues with stairs and safety equipment.
Significant violations identified in 2024 include problems with the smoke and carbon monoxide detectors, as well as an ongoing mold issue in apartment 2R. The property has experienced multiple inspections in 2024 related to work without a permit, though inspectors were unable to gain access in several instances. The building's maintenance history shows a pattern of reactive rather than proactive responses to issues, with multiple open violations as of 2025 affecting apartment 2R, including problems with heating systems, safety equipment, and visible mold.
While the building has passed some inspections (including recent rodent inspections in March 2024), earlier inspections in 2019 and 2022 indicated rat activity. The property has maintained a relatively consistent record regarding bedbug activity, with no reported infestations in the past four reporting periods from 2020 to 2024. The structure has also received violations for failure to file required external low pressure inspections between 2020 and 2023, with one violation remaining active as of 2023.
