249 East 94th Street, Brooklyn, NY 11212

The 2-story, 4-unit New Law Tenement building at 249 East 94th Street, currently owned by Vaughn Louison and constructed in 1931, has experienced several notable issues over the past several years that warrant attention. Most significantly, the building has unresolved open violations dating from 2021 through 2024 regarding the failure to file annual bedbug reports as required by Housing Maintenance Code § HMC, which could indicate ongoing pest management compliance issues.

The building has also experienced two emergency complaints in early 2019 related to heat and hot water issues, though one of these complaints was closed due to inability of the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD) to gain access for inspection, along with a mold-related unsanitary condition complaint that was inspected without resulting violations. Additionally, there was a complaint received in January 2019 regarding an alleged illegal conversion, but the inspector was unable to gain access to verify this claim.

It's important to note that the most recent bedbug report violations cover the years 2021 through 2024, suggesting ongoing noncompliance with HPD reporting requirements even as of this date. While the building has experienced various maintenance issues in the past, particularly in early 2019, there have been no recorded complaints or violations related to heat/hot water or mold problems since that time. However, the persistence of bedbug report violations over multiple years is particularly noteworthy and may indicate challenges with maintaining compliance with housing regulations, though this specific issue may not directly affect current residents' daily living conditions.
