AI summary · updated June 2026

The three-story, six-unit New Law Tenement building at 1318 Halsey Street in Bushwick, owned by Kevin Kuo, has demonstrated persistent maintenance challenges since at least 2020. The property, constructed in 1914, has experienced recurring rodent infestations, with the most recent inspections in 2024 and 2025 showing active rat activity. The building has also faced significant heating and hot water issues, particularly affecting apartment 1L in late 2020, where violations were documented for inadequate hot water and gas supply to fixtures. While the building's bedbug reporting history shows no infestations between 2017 and 2022, recent violations related to bedbug reporting compliance were noted in 2020-2024.

The building's maintenance record reveals multiple 311 complaints and Housing Maintenance Code violations, including a 2021 indoor air quality issue involving chemical vapors. The property has undergone several inspections by the Department of Health and Mental Hygiene regarding rodent conditions, and there have been two significant violations related to heat supply documented in 2020. While some violations have been resolved, such as the 2020-2021 bedbug reporting issue, the building remains on record with an open violation as of April 2024 regarding proper notice posting about the agency's housing information guide. The property has experienced multiple instances of denied access during inspections, most notably in connection with a gas utility referral in 2021.
