737 Miller Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11207

The three-story, six-unit New Law Tenement building at 737 Miller Avenue in East New York, owned by Yoel Hershkowitch, has experienced several notable maintenance issues over the past few years. Most recently, in January 2025, there was a heavy water leak that resulted in violations being issued by HPD.

The building has had recurring water-related problems, with another water leak complaint recorded in January 2024. Additional maintenance concerns have included issues with doors (June 2024), ceiling paint/plaster (January 2024), and a heat/hot water complaint in November 2023 that HPD was unable to inspect. The property currently has several open violations as of June 2024, primarily related to apartment 2F, including problems with the door bell buzzer system, rodent infestation, door gaps, and security features requiring attention.

The building's maintenance history shows a pattern of unresolved issues, particularly in recent years, with multiple violation notices issued in 2024 regarding water leaks, electrical systems, and interior conditions. While there have been no reported bedbug infestations in the past five years, and previous rodent inspection records from 2011-2012 show compliance, the current open violations suggest ongoing maintenance challenges. The property has undergone various inspections and received numerous violation notices between late 2023 and 2025, indicating active monitoring by housing authorities, though many issues appear to remain unaddressed based on the current violation status.
