352 East 96th Street, Brooklyn, NY 11212

The four-unit, two-story New Law tenement building at 352 East 96th Street in East Flatbush, built in 1930 and currently owned by Jean Louis, has experienced recurring maintenance issues, particularly with heat and hot water systems. Most recently, in December 2024, there was a heat and hot water complaint in one apartment, following a similar building-wide incident in November 2023, though these issues were resolved upon inspection.

The property has also faced multiple Housing Maintenance Code violations, with current open violations as of December 2023 related to posting mandatory safety notices for smoke detectors and carbon monoxide detectors in common areas, as well as maintenance issues in the first-floor apartment 1R, including problems with doors, cabinets, and a bathroom basin. Earlier complaints and violations from 2022-2024 indicate various maintenance challenges, including pest control issues, appliance concerns, and multiple instances of heating system problems. The building has recorded two instances of cabinet-related violations (2022 and 2023) and multiple inspection requests regarding paint conditions in ceilings and walls.

In 2021, there was a zoning-related parking violation involving commercial vehicles, though this appears to have been resolved. The most recent bedbug reporting period (2022-2023) shows no infestations were reported, with zero units affected. While many historical complaints have been resolved, the building continues to have some open violations that require attention, particularly concerning safety notice requirements in common areas.
