3017 Newkirk Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11226
The 6-unit, 3-story New Law Tenement building at 3017 Newkirk Avenue in East Flatbush, owned by Carlos Varazona, has experienced significant maintenance issues over the past year. Most notably, between March and May 2025, there were multiple plumbing-related service requests and violations involving hardware issues with bathtub/showers and door frames, some of which required correction by the property owner. The building had major violations in late 2024 in Apartment 5 (3rd story), including problems with indoor air quality (including visible mold), bathroom fixtures, and pest infestations (roaches and mice), though these were marked as corrected.
Earlier structural concerns were documented in 2024 regarding vestibule doors and various maintenance issues. The building has a documented history of boiler-related problems, with inspections in late 2022 citing defective equipment and regulatory compliance issues, leading to one substantial penalty of $625. Recently, there was one active violation issued in 2024 regarding the failure to file the 2023 external low pressure inspection report. The property has maintained a clean record regarding bedbug infestations over the past three years, with no reported cases between 2020 and 2025.
Inspections for rodent presence in 2011 showed initial and compliance failures, but subsequent inspections in 2015 and 2018 passed. The building's exterior/structure has faced various maintenance challenges, as evidenced by multiple NYC Department of Buildings and Housing Preservation and Development complaints since 2022, though most recent inspections (2023) showed no violations warranted. At least three 311 complaints in 2025 regarding plumbing issues and door frames resulted in violations that required correction, though some complaints were ultimately found not to violate housing laws. The most consistent pattern of complaints relates to plumbing issues, door frames, and water-related problems, with the building displaying ongoing maintenance requirements across various system components.
