226 East 95th Street, Brooklyn, NY 11212

226 East 95th Street is a two-story, four-unit New Law Tenement building located in East Flatbush, built in 1931 and owned by Martin Stein. The building has experienced recurring maintenance issues related to essential services, particularly heat, hot water, and plumbing systems. In April 2024, three separate complaints regarding heating and radiator problems were filed, along with electrical lighting issues, with all four complaints receiving "unable to access" inspection responses from the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD).

Between January and May 2024, the building also faced multiple infrastructure challenges including water leak problems, door/window maintenance needs, and HVAC complaints, with one heat/hot water violation being issued during this period. The building has undergone various inspections and repairs throughout 2024, resulting in multiple violations being documented and subsequently closed. These include issues with fire retardant plaster, door self-closing mechanisms, and roof leaks in the public hall areas.

The property faced significant electrical concerns in April 2024, leading to two violations and a $4,000 penalty related to unpermitted electrical work, including newly installed outlets and exposed wiring in the basement. Despite these challenges, the building has maintained a clean record regarding bedbug infestations, with all eight bedbug reports filed between 2021 and 2025 showing zero infested units. While the building has experienced numerous maintenance issues, most have been addressed through inspections and repairs, though some recent complaints about heating, plumbing, and electrical systems remain a concern as evidenced by multiple "unable to access" responses from HPD inspections.
