1569 47th Street, Brooklyn, NY 11219
This four-story, 1931 NY Law Tenement building in Borough Park, currently owned by Congregation Kerem Chaim, has experienced persistent elevator service issues over the past several years. Between 2019 and 2024, there have been multiple documented instances of the building's only elevator being out of service, leading to Oath Violations and Environmental Control Board (ECB) violations for creating hazardous conditions. As of 2024, there are still active violations related to elevator maintenance and service.
The building has also faced significant plumbing issues, with a toilet emergency complaint filed in late 2021 that HPD could not access for inspection. Most concerning is the building's current open violation from 2024 requiring the submission of annual bedbug reports, which has been a recurring compliance issue since at least 2021. The building's violation history shows a pattern of maintenance challenges, particularly related to its elevator system, which has resulted in multiple fines and active violations totaling $6,250 in penalties (though the actual balance due is currently listed as $0.00).
The property has also accumulated several violations for failure to certify corrections on immediately hazardous ECB violations, though many of these have been dismissed or downgraded. More recent violations from 2021 and 2023 pertain to failure to display energy efficiency scores and grades, which remain active as of 2025. The building's management has demonstrated some responsiveness to violations, as evidenced by the closed status of many complaints, though recurring issues suggest ongoing maintenance challenges.
