2173 Bedford Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11226

The 8-unit, 3-story New Law Tenement building at 2173 Bedford Avenue in Flatbush, built in 1931 and currently owned by Leslie Rigg, has experienced several recurring maintenance issues over recent years, with the most significant being a pattern of heat and hot water supply problems. Between 2018 and 2023, there were four separate incidents involving the entire building without heat or hot water, with complaints filed in October 2018, December 2019, January 2023 (twice).

While these complaints were generally resolved with the restoration of services, the recurring nature of this issue suggests ongoing system challenges. More recently, in March 2023, there was a complaint regarding unsanitary conditions related to garbage and recycling storage, which was inspected by the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD) and resulted in no violations being issued.

The building's recent history has also been marked by an environmental concern, with a rodent infestation complaint in July 2018, though the inspection outcome is not explicitly stated in the available records. In terms of structural modifications or illegal activities, a complaint regarding an illegal conversion was filed in June 2021, but after inspection in August 2021, no violations were found. The building's documented history reveals primarily maintenance-related issues, with no reported violations regarding building safety or structural concerns in recent years.
