966 Utica Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11203
The three-story, five-unit New Law Tenement at 966 Utica Avenue in East Flatbush, owned by Pinchos Jager, has experienced ongoing maintenance challenges since 2020. Most recently, in early 2025, there were complaints about pests and a refrigerator issue that HPD inspectors could not access to verify. The building has a recurring rodent problem, with multiple inspections between 2020-2025 showing rat activity, though a compliance inspection in January 2025 resulted in a "passed" status.
Significant infrastructure concerns have included multiple water-related issues, with heavy flow leaks reported in 2024 and 2025. The property experienced heat and hot water outages affecting the entire building in October 2020, though these were reportedly resolved. A series of violations from 2020-2024 indicates failure to maintain proper safety notices regarding gas leaks, carbon monoxide detectors, and building codes, though these were eventually certified as corrected in July 2024.
The building's maintenance history shows regular pest control efforts, with multiple bait applications between 2020-2025, and shows that the property has been maintaining its bedbug reporting requirements, with no infested units reported in recent filings from 2022-2024. The Department of Buildings has recently received complaints regarding potential illegal conversion and work without a permit in late 2024, though inspectors were unable to gain access to verify these claims. As of 2023-2024, there is one active violation related to the failure to file the 2023 external low-pressure inspection, and various maintenance issues were documented in late 2024 regarding doors, windows, plumbing, and walls, though these were closed following inspections.
