44 Lott Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11212

The property at 44 Lott Avenue in Brownsville, a two-story, four-unit New Law Tenement built in 1930 and currently owned by Glenda Peters, has experienced several notable maintenance and compliance issues over recent years. Most concerning is the building's persistent failure to file required annual bedbug reports, with violations recorded in 2021, 2022, 2023, and 2024 remaining open.

Additionally, there are three unresolved violations from February 2018 involving safety signage requirements related to smoke detectors, building registration, and gas leak procedures, along with a B-class violation concerning defective fire egress that requires restoration of proper access through a fence gate. More recently, in August 2023, the building received an Environmental Control Board violation for improperly stored combustible construction debris, carrying a penalty of $3,125. The building's maintenance history shows multiple service requests, including a refrigerator complaint that took nearly nine months to resolve in 2022-2023, and a heat/hot water complaint in 2018 that could not be inspected due to lack of access.

Rodent issues have been documented, with mouse sightings reported in 2019 and rat activity noted in September 2019, though a subsequent compliance inspection in December 2019 passed. In June 2023, there was a complaint about excessive debris that was resolved through an Oath Violation. The building's overall record suggests ongoing challenges with maintenance compliance and resident comfort, particularly regarding basic services and pest management, though some violations date back several years without recent follow-up inspections indicating whether they have been addressed.
