836 Schenectady Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11203
The three-story, six-unit New Law Tenement at 836 Schenectady Avenue in East Flatbush, owned by Lewin Gore and built in 1931, has experienced numerous concerning maintenance issues in recent years. Most notably, in November 2023, there were emergency complaints and violations related to inadequate heat and hot water throughout the building, as well as cooking gas issues that were addressed but not fully resolved.
Apartment 2A, specifically, has documented problems with inadequate hot water and a cockroach infestation, with violations remaining open as of April 2024. The building also faces significant regulatory scrutiny due to multiple open violations regarding the annual bedbug report filings, dating back to 2018 and remaining unresolved through 2024. The property has an active violation from September 2024 related to the failure to file required annual boiler inspection reports, with a $3,125 penalty.
Earlier in 2023, there were several serious heating system violations that resulted in a total of $25,000 in penalties for heating and gas system issues, though these specific violations have been resolved. The building's violation history shows a pattern of recurring issues with compliance and maintenance, particularly regarding heating systems and pest control, with multiple open violations related to failed inspection filings for 2018-2022 external low-pressure boiler inspections. While some violations from 2023 have been dismissed, the ongoing and open violations suggest persistent maintenance challenges within the building.
