336 East 52nd Street, Brooklyn, NY 11203

The three-story, 9-unit New Law Tenement at 336 East 52nd Street in East Flatbush, built in 1930 and currently owned by Boris Nisanov, has experienced numerous maintenance issues over the past several years. Most notably, there have been recurrent problems with heat and hot water, including two recent emergencies in November 2024 affecting the entire building, though in both cases heat and hot water were reportedly restored before inspections could be completed.

The building also faces ongoing safety concerns, particularly regarding window guards, with multiple complaints filed throughout 2023. A significant cluster of maintenance issues was documented in 2024, including problems with doors and windows, flooring, electrical wiring, plumbing, and various wall conditions, with several violations still marked as open in 2024, particularly regarding fire escape maintenance and door frame repairs.

Historical records show various enforcement actions and complaints dating back to 2020, including concerns about work without proper permits, construction activities, and illegal hotel room usage, though most of these complaints were either resolved or no violations were found upon inspection. The building's most recent inspection in 2024 identified multiple violations requiring attention, including problems with self-closing doors, fire escape functionality, and wall conditions. Despite these various issues, the building's bedbug reporting for the period between November 2022 and October 2023 shows no infestations, with no infested units or re-infestations reported.
