645 New Jersey Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11207
The 6-unit, 3-story New Law Tenement building at 645 New Jersey Avenue in East New York, owned by Yosef Levy, has experienced persistent maintenance issues over the past several years. Between June 2022 and August 2023, there were multiple emergency water leak incidents documented, including three heavy flow leaks in August 2023, and several other complaints regarding water-related problems, with violations issued in some cases. The building has also faced various repair needs, particularly in Apartment 1F as of September 2023, including plumbing issues (flushing apparatus, bathroom fixture repairs), electrical concerns (missing outlet cover), and safety requirements (missing smoke and carbon monoxide detectors).
More recent concerns include a deteriorating exterior condition noted in an active 2024 violation regarding cracked and missing mortar joints throughout the brick facade, with a penalty of $3,125. Other notable incidents include an emergency mold situation in August 2022, rodent activity detected in 2022 (though passed inspection as of December 2022), and a building shaking complaint filed in October 2024. The building's maintenance history shows a pattern of recurring issues, particularly with water systems and general upkeep.
The property has maintained a clean record regarding bedbug infestations, with no reported cases between 2020 and 2025. Rodent inspections have produced mixed results over the years, with the most recent showing improved conditions. The building's violation record also indicates ongoing attention to fire and safety systems, with multiple citations requiring corrections to safety equipment. While most complaints have been addressed and closed, the presence of active violations and recurring maintenance issues suggests a need for continued monitoring of building conditions.
