4219 15th Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11219
The four-story, 12-unit New Law Tenement building at 4219 15th Avenue in Borough Park, owned by Zach Spira and constructed in 1930, has experienced several notable issues in recent years, particularly regarding safety compliance and maintenance requirements. Most concerning is an active violation related to the failure to file required External Low Pressure Inspection reports for 2018-2023, which remains unresolved as of September 2024.
The building has also had repeated violations regarding bedbug reporting requirements between 2021 and 2023, though recent filings (2023-2025) indicate no current infestations. A significant environmental control board violation from 2019 resulted in a $625 penalty for inadequate housekeeping that obstructed egress on floors 1-3. The building's history reveals persistent maintenance and compliance challenges, including multiple violations in 1991 related to unauthorized alterations and various maintenance issues in the cellar area, such as broken plasterboard ceilings, missing window glass, and exposed electrical wires.
More recent complaints include three instances of illegal after-hours work in 2019, one in 2020 regarding work without a permit, and a 2023 complaint that resulted in no violation being found upon inspection. While the building has received several permits for work between 2018-2019, the pattern of violations and complaints suggests ongoing management and maintenance challenges, though recent bedbug reports indicate successful extermination and prevention efforts. The property has maintained a record of filing annual bedbug reports since 2022, showing no current infestations as of the latest filing periods.
