791 East 2nd Street, Brooklyn, NY 11218
791 East 2nd Street is a 6-story, 48-unit New Law Tenement building located in Kensington and owned by Henrietta Millet. Built in 1930, the property has experienced several maintenance issues in recent years. Most notably, in 2024, there were multiple complaints about unsanitary conditions and pests, with violations issued in June 2024 relating to a vermin infestation in apartment A7 and various maintenance issues on the first story.
Earlier in 2024, the building faced multiple repair needs including problems with a window frame, plumbing issues with a basin/sink, water leaks, and concerns about paint/plaster conditions affecting ceilings and walls. The building's elevator system has been a recurring concern, with complaints in both 2022 and 2025 regarding devices and safety equipment, leading to active violations as of 2022 relating to braille signs, emergency phones, and maintenance logs. The property has maintained its bedbug-free status since 2020, with all annual reports showing zero infested units.
Recent inspections in 2024 passed for rodent conditions. The building has demonstrated some compliance with emergency repairs, as seen in the swift closure of several complaints, though access issues were noted in some 2023 inspections. Historical data shows previous violations related to energy benchmarking reports, which were eventually resolved. While the building has faced various maintenance challenges, particularly in 2024, many of these have been addressed through official violation processes and subsequent corrections.
