444 Jamaica Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11208
444 Jamaica Avenue is a 4-story, 36-unit New Law Tenement building constructed in 1905, currently owned by Jay Gold. The building has experienced recurring safety and maintenance issues, with the most recent concerns emerging in March 2025 regarding carbon monoxide detectors, smoke detectors, plumbing fixtures, cabinets, and pest infestations. Notably, HPD inspections in response to these complaints were unable to be completed, and tenants were advised to refile their complaints for proper inspection.
The building has a documented history of pest problems, particularly in Apartment 4F, where violations were issued in September 2024 for mouse and roach infestations, as well as multiple other issues including missing smoke detectors, defective faucets, and compliance violations related to carbon monoxide detection and water temperature. The property has faced multiple carbon monoxide detector-related violations, with similar complaints recorded in September 2024 and March 2025. Other significant issues include a heat/hot water complaint for the entire building in December 2024, and ongoing concerns about illegal conversion as of May 2025.
The building's maintenance history shows regular documentation of compliance efforts, including the certification of violations related to bathroom conditions, electrical issues, and structural concerns. While the building has maintained a pest-free status in recent bedbug reports (2022-2025), rodent inspections have shown mixed results, with documented rat activity in December 2020 and failed compliance inspections in 2017. The property has consistently shown issues with building systems and safety equipment, as evidenced by recurring violations and complaints regarding heating systems, safety devices, and general maintenance.
