664 Jamaica Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11208

664 Jamaica Avenue is a three-story, three-unit New Law Tenement building located in Cypress Hills, Brooklyn, and has been owned by Beatriz Casper since 1910. The building has experienced recurring heat and hot water issues, with five documented emergency complaints between 2023 and 2024, including incidents involving the entire building as recently as November 2024.

The property has also faced electrical infrastructure challenges, as evidenced by multiple complaints in late 2022 regarding wiring, lighting, and outlet issues, though inspections did not result in any violations. Recent violations include open items from 2023 concerning electrical service to bathroom and kitchen fixtures in the first-floor apartment, and self-closing door issues, though many previous violations, including those related to bedbug reporting requirements, have been closed.

The building's maintenance history shows regular attention to pest control, with no reported bedbug infestations in the most recent two annual filings for 2024-2025 and 2022-2023, and successful rodent inspections in 2012 and 2017. Compliance issues noted in early 2021 included inadequate notification postings regarding heating system access and building registration information, as well as missing self-closing doors, though the status of these violations as of 2025 remains unclear. While the building has experienced periodic maintenance challenges, particularly regarding heating systems, many previous violations have been successfully addressed, and recent bedbug and rodent control measures appear to be effective.
