2329 Bedford Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11226

The 6-unit, 3-story New Law Tenement building at 2329 Bedford Avenue in Flatbush, owned by Moise Lajtai and constructed in 1905, has experienced several maintenance issues over recent years. Most notably, in March 2024, there was an unsanitary condition involving mice infestation in apartment 1F, which resulted in Housing Maintenance Code violations that were certified as corrected by June 2024. The building has a history of plumbing and water-related problems, including multiple complaints about water leaks in 2021, issues with the bathtub/shower in 2022, and a heat/hot water problem affecting an apartment in January 2022 that was classified as emergency.

Safety concerns have also been documented, including sprinkler system and electrical wiring issues in February 2021, though no violations were issued following inspections. The building underwent significant work in late 2019, as evidenced by Environmental Control Board violations related to inadequate safety measures and housekeeping during renovation work, with one violation resulting in a $2,500 penalty. However, more recent inspections and complaints have generally been resolved without major ongoing issues.

The property has maintained compliance with bedbug reporting requirements from 2020-2024, with no reported infestations in the past three years. A comprehensive set of violations from September 2021 required the building management to post various safety and compliance notices in the common areas, all of which have been certified as corrected. Recent permits from 2019-2020 indicate active maintenance and improvement work being conducted on the property.
