296 New Lots Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11207
The 4-unit, 3-story New Law tenement building at 296 New Lots Avenue in East New York, owned by Andrew Walcott, has experienced significant maintenance challenges in recent years, particularly regarding pest management and building inspections. As of 2025, there are multiple active violations related to the failure to file necessary external low-pressure inspections between 2018-2021, as well as a current violation regarding the annual bedbug report.
The building has a documented history of pest-related issues, with multiple violations issued in September 2023 for rodent and cockroach infestations in apartment 2B, and previous complaints in both 2022 and 2023 regarding unsanitary conditions with pests and mold, though some 2022 complaints were ultimately found to have no violations. The property also has several open violations from 2022-2023 related to maintenance issues in apartment 2B, including water leak repairs, plaster surface and paint issues, and a documented mold problem.
While the building had passed rodent inspections in 2011, 2012, 2016, and 2017, recent patterns suggest an increase in pest-related challenges. In addition to the above concerns, there was a food establishment complaint regarding rodents/insects/garbage in 2024 that required Department of Health intervention. The building's maintenance history indicates periodic attention to various systems, with past violations regarding boiler inspection filings in 2020, and various maintenance requests in 2022-2023 including issues with flooring, appliances, and wall conditions, though many of these complaints were closed with no violations or required corrections.
