170 East 96th Street, Brooklyn, NY 11212
This three-story, six-unit New Law Tenement building located at 170 East 96th Street in East Flatbush, owned by Margret Gauthier and constructed in 1930, has experienced several notable maintenance issues in recent years, with the most pressing concerns emerging in 2024. A January 2024 inspection revealed multiple open violations in apartment 1F, including inadequate hot water supply, defective faucets in both the kitchen and bathroom, and problems with the entrance door hinges.
The building also has several open violations related to safety requirements, including missing notices for smoke detector requirements, carbon monoxide detector requirements, and gas leak procedures, as well as the need to provide a completed certificate of inspection display near the mailboxes. The building has a documented history of heating and hot water issues, as evidenced by a January 2024 HPD complaint and previous heating complaints in 2024 and 2021.
A significant health-related incident was recorded in August 2021 regarding drinking water that required Department of Health and Mental Hygiene involvement, though additional information was needed to proceed with the investigation. The property has maintained good records regarding bedbug reporting, with the most recent report for the period ending October 2023 showing zero infested units, and previous reports from 2019-2020 also indicating no infestations. While some violations from a March 2023 inspection were resolved (related to bedbug reporting requirements), the building currently has multiple open violations that require attention, primarily focusing on water supply, plumbing issues, and safety notice requirements.
