919 Thomas S Boyland St, Brooklyn, NY 11212
The 20-unit, 4-story New Law Tenement building at 919 Thomas S. Boyland St in Brownsville, owned by Israel Elbogen, has experienced several infrastructure and maintenance issues over recent years, with the most significant problems concentrated in apartment 2D. As of October 2024, there are multiple open violations in apartment 2D including inoperative smoke and carbon monoxide detectors, defective window guards, and various plumbing and repair issues involving faucets, a wash basin, bathtub, and numerous interior surfaces.
The building has a history of pest-related concerns, with multiple 311 and HPD complaints about unsanitary conditions and pests between 2022-2025, including a recent rodent sighting in May 2025. Water-related issues have also been persistent, with multiple complaints about leaks recorded between 2021-2022. The property's maintenance history shows regular inspections and some enforcement actions, including a 2023 violation for failure to file the 2022 external low pressure inspection.
There have been two access-denied responses to complaints in 2022 and 2023, most notably for a gas utility inspection in 2023. While previous bedbug infestations were recorded in 2019 (3 units), more recent filings from 2020 through 2024 show zero infestations. The building's maintenance records show a pattern of complaints being investigated, with some resulting in violations and others being closed without penalties. Despite the numerous maintenance issues, many complaints have been resolved through inspections, though several significant violations remain open as of the latest records.
