334 Rutland Road, Brooklyn, NY 11225

The 20-unit, 4-story New Law Tenement building at 334 Rutland Road in Prospect-Lefferts Gardens, owned by Isaac Pollak, has experienced recurring maintenance issues in 2024-2025, particularly concerning sanitation and safety. Most recently, in May 2025, there were multiple complaints about unsanitary conditions, including pests and mold, though inspections by the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD) found no violations.

There was a notable pattern of maintenance complaints in April 2025, including issues with paint/plaster on walls and ceilings, and a closed safety complaint regarding the fire escape. In 2023, a significant cluster of violations was documented in Apartment 5D, including problems with mice infestation, smoke detector issues, water supply problems, leaky fixtures, and the need for repairs to carbon monoxide detecting devices.

The building has maintained an active bedbug reporting history from 2021 to 2025, with all reports indicating zero infested, eradicated, or re-infested dwelling units, suggesting effective management of this particular issue. In October 2023, the building was cited for self-closing door issues at the main entrance and yard entrance, both of which were subsequently addressed. While many recent complaints have been promptly investigated and closed without violations being found, the frequency and variety of issues reported, particularly concerning sanitation and safety, indicate ongoing maintenance challenges within this 1924 tenement building.
