1223 Bushwick Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11221
The 24-unit, 4-story New Law Tenement building at 1223 Bushwick Avenue, owned by Moshe Neiman, has experienced recurring heating issues in early 2025, with multiple complaints about inadequate heat and hot water between December 2024 and February 2025. More recently, a wiring complaint was filed in May 2025 that resulted in an HPD inspection, though access could not be gained to verify the issue.
The building has faced several significant maintenance challenges in recent years, including active ECB violations related to boiler equipment and improper materials, and multiple Housing Maintenance Code violations in 2024 involving water leaks, defective floors, and mold in apartment 2B, along with C-class violations in 2A related to roach infestation and door maintenance. Historical records show various construction-related concerns, including illegal hotel room usage complaints and unauthorized construction work in late 2022. The building has a documented history of heating system problems, with multiple emergency complaints filed throughout 2024-2025.
Three apartments (1A, 2A, and 6A) were noted for unauthorized conversion to additional dwelling units in 2022, and there were issues with self-closing doors and window guards in 2024. While bed bug and rodent inspections from 2018 through 2025 show generally good results (with most inspections passing), there have been some failures and rat activity concerns noted in early 2022. The building experienced a fire incident in 2022 that caused significant damage to apartment 6A, resulting in active violations related to structural non-compliance.
