1212 Newkirk Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11230
1212 Newkirk Avenue is a 6-story, 66-unit New Law Tenement building constructed in 1931 and currently owned by Alan Waldman. The property has experienced recurring maintenance issues in recent months, with three separate heat and hot water complaints between April and May 2025, though in each case service was reportedly restored before inspection. Multiple window frame complaints were filed in 2025, with inspectors repeatedly unable to gain building access for proper evaluation.
A series of violations related to elevator service and boiler maintenance has been documented through the years, including three boiler-related complaints between 2020 and 2022, and multiple elevator service complaints between 2019 and 2024, with varying outcomes ranging from "No Violation Warranted" to Oath Violations. The building's maintenance history shows several significant issues requiring attention, including flooring problems (April 2025), and various plumbing, paint/plaster, and door/window concerns. Inspection records from 2024-2025 indicate violations related to fire safety equipment, safety signage, and access issues regarding self-closing doors in public areas.
Recent environmental concerns include mold (June 2025), slow water leaks (June 2025), and a ceiling paint/plaster complaint (June 2025). Historical records show occasional pest issues, with three bedbug incidents reported between 2019 and 2024, though recent filings show no current infestations. The building's rodent inspection history from 2009-2011 shows initial failure to meet standards followed by subsequent compliance.
