317 East 96th Street, Brooklyn, NY 11212
The four-unit, two-story New Law Tenement at 317 East 96th Street, owned by Carl Williams, has experienced several significant maintenance issues over the past few years. Most notably, there were two emergency situations in 2023-2024 involving heating and hot water problems affecting the entire building, with one incident in August 2023 being temporarily resolved during an HPD inspection. A door/window-related emergency in early 2024 was also documented and subsequently closed.
The building has been subject to recurring non-compliance issues regarding bedbug reporting; records show violations in 2021, 2022, 2023, and 2024 related to the failure to file the required annual bedbug report. However, the most recent bedbug report for the period ending October 2023 shows no infested units, no eradicated units, and no re-infested units, suggesting successful resolution of this particular concern. The property has maintained generally good compliance status, with the most recent housing maintenance code violations and complaints being closed appropriately.
An investigation in February 2024 regarding work without a permit was found to warrant no violation at the time of inspection. The only other notable historical issue on record was a rat activity inspection in June 2017, though no subsequent rodent problems have been reported in recent years. The building, constructed in 1931, has been relatively stable in recent times, with the most pressing concerns being the occasional heating system failures and administrative compliance issues rather than structural or safety matters.
