84 Lawrence Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11230
84 Lawrence Avenue is a 4-story, 35-unit residential building located in Kensington, constructed in 1931 and currently owned by Robert Izsak. The property has experienced numerous maintenance issues in recent years, particularly in 2025, when multiple complaints were filed and investigated by HPD between May and June, including problems with unsanitary conditions (garbage/recycling storage), plumbing issues (sink/basin, radiator), electrical problems (lighting), and safety concerns (carbon monoxide detector).
The building currently has several open Housing Maintenance Code violations from an October 2024 inspection of Apartment B11, including issues with water leaks, pest infestation, and flooring conditions. The property has also faced persistent problems with energy compliance, as evidenced by multiple active Department of Buildings violations related to failure to file required benchmarking reports and low-pressure inspections between 2021 and 2024, along with an active ECB violation from November 2023 regarding bathroom mold and fire stopping issues in Apartment A13. The building's recent history shows recurring concerns with plumbing, flooring, and pest control, including multiple bait applications for rodent control in 2025 and the presence of rat activity recorded in inspections from early 2025.
A notable cluster of complaints was filed in June 2025, resulting in both violations and closed complaints, covering a range of issues from unsanitary conditions to safety concerns. While there have been some successful resolutions to certain violations, such as the correction of various maintenance issues in Apartment B11 noted in late 2024, several significant problems remain open as of July 2025. The building's management has demonstrated varying levels of responsiveness to maintenance issues, with some violations being addressed while others remain outstanding.
