601 New Lots Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11207

601 New Lots Avenue is a two-story, three-unit residential building located in East New York, owned by Erez Daniel and built in 1987 as a New Law Tenement. The building has experienced several significant events over the past few years, most notably a heat and hot water outage in late 2022 that affected the entire building, prompting multiple emergency complaints to the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD) between November 22-25, 2022. While these complaints were eventually closed following restoration of services, they highlight a concerning pattern of heating system issues.

More recently, as of April 2024, there is an active violation regarding the failure to file 2020 external low pressure inspection records. The building has also faced administrative challenges, including multiple bedbug report violations between 2021-2024, though all three inspections during this period (November 2021, March 2022, and April 2023) reported zero infested, eradicated, or re-infested units. Other notable incidents include two complaints in April 2019 regarding building shaking and a construction-related issue, though these were investigated and found to warrant no violations.

The property has maintained a generally good track record with rodent inspections, passing all four conducted between 2011-2019. There was one significant incident in 2019 involving damage to a first-floor commercial space due to vehicle impact, though this violation was ultimately dismissed. The building's permit history shows at least one issued permit in June 2019 for external work.
