476 East 94th Street, Brooklyn, NY 11212

The three-story, six-unit New Law Tenement building at 476 East 94th Street in East Flatbush, owned by Irma Mcdowall and constructed in 1930, has experienced recurring heating and hot water issues over the past several years. The most recent heat/hot water complaint was filed in January 2022, though HPD reported that the issue was resolved. Historical records show multiple heat and hot water violations between 2018 and 2022, including problems specifically affecting Apartments 4 and 5, though these violations have since been marked as closed.

The building has also faced regulatory compliance issues, including the failure to file bedbug reports between 2018 and 2022, though recent filings from 2022 through 2025 indicate no bedbug infestations or related problems. Most notably, in December 2023, a violation was recorded regarding obstructed stair access from the first floor to the bulkhead, with various items creating safety hazards, though this violation has since been resolved. The Department of Buildings records show one notable violation regarding the failure to file 2021 external low-pressure inspection results, which was dismissed in August 2023.

Rodent inspections have shown mixed results, with one compliance failure in 2014 and a passing result in July 2018. The building's bedbug reporting history from 2021 through 2025 shows consistent compliance with no reported infestations or need for eradication efforts during this period. While the building has faced multiple violations and service requests over the years, recent records suggest improved compliance with regulatory requirements, particularly regarding bedbug reporting, though the recurring heating system issues remain a historical concern.
