603 New Jersey Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11207
603 New Jersey Avenue is a 3-story, 6-unit New Law Tenement building constructed in 1930, currently owned by Lea Ruben. The property has experienced recurring maintenance issues over the past several years, with particular concerns about heat and hot water availability, which were reported as emergencies in November 2021 and February 2020.
Other significant incidents include a power outage in January 2020, plumbing issues with a toilet in November 2019, and problems related to an electric/gas range in late 2019, though no violations were issued following these inspections. More recently, in June 2024, multiple Housing Maintenance Code violations were documented, including issues with self-closing doors and latches in public areas, which were classified as Class B and C violations. Of particular concern were safety-related violations in Apartment 1F, including missing smoke detectors, absent carbon monoxide detectors, and evidence of pest infestations (roaches and mice), though these were certified as corrected by September 2024.
The building has maintained a consistent record of no bedbug infestations since at least 2019, with the most recent report from June 2025 showing zero infested units for the 2023-2024 reporting period. Historical rodent inspections from 2011 and 2012 both passed, suggesting some success in managing pest-related issues over time. While recent violations have been addressed, the pattern of maintenance issues, particularly regarding heating systems and various apartment systems, indicates ongoing building maintenance challenges.
