533 East 2nd Street, Brooklyn, NY 11218
The 46-unit, 4-story New Law Tenement building at 533 East 2nd Street in Kensington, constructed in 1924 and currently owned by Moses Kaiser, has experienced several significant maintenance issues in recent years, particularly regarding heating and water systems. Most notably, there were multiple complaints about heat and hot water systems in late 2024, with building-wide outages reported in November and subsequent apartment-specific issues continuing into early 2025.
The building has also faced persistent water-related problems, with multiple emergency water leak complaints recorded between late 2023 and 2025. Additional concerns include rodent sightings in mid-2024, followed by a failed rodent inspection in August 2024, though a subsequent compliance inspection in September 2024 passed. The building has current open violations from 2024 related to mold, carbon monoxide detectors, and pest control in apartment 3F, as well as violations concerning public area cleanliness and waste management.
A significant 2023 violation regarding the failure to file 2020 external low-pressure inspection records remains active. Despite these ongoing issues, the building's most recent bedbug report from December 2023 showed no infestations or re-infestations during the reporting period. The property has undergone various inspections and received numerous violation notices over the years, including a 2021 illegal parking violation that was resolved, and the building maintained a generally passed status in historical rodent inspections dating back to 2011.
