58 De Sales Place, Brooklyn, NY 11207

The three-story, six-unit New Law Tenement building at 58 De Sales Place in Bushwick, constructed in 1915 and currently owned by 58 De Sales Realty LLC, has experienced persistent maintenance issues over the past few years. Most recently, in June 2025, the building faced complaints regarding water leaks with heavy flow and mold conditions, though no violations were issued following HPD inspections. The building has a documented history of heat and hot water issues, with multiple complaints in late 2024 and early 2025, primarily affecting the entire building, though these were reportedly resolved upon inspection.

Multiple system deficiencies were noted during a June 2024 inspection, including water leak issues affecting both 1L and 2R apartments, as well as various maintenance concerns involving lighting, ceiling conditions, and sanitary issues. Currently, there are open Class B violations related to self-closing doors, water leaks, carbon monoxide detectors, and plastered surfaces in apartment 2R, as well as issues affecting the building's compliance with fire safety regulations. The property has experienced significant regulatory scrutiny, particularly regarding its use as a transient rental in 2020-2021, resulting in multiple violations that were ultimately resolved but required correction notices.

Recent building violations from 2023-2024 indicate noncompliance with external low-pressure inspection requirements. While the building has passed recent rodent inspections in 2024-2025, historical records from 2014-2018 show periods of rat activity and required bait applications. The absence of reported bedbug infestations in recent years (2022-2023) is a positive note, though the building's age and persistent maintenance issues suggest ongoing challenges with building systems and infrastructure.
