1772 55th Street, Brooklyn, NY 11204

The two-story, four-unit New Law Tenement building at 1772 55th Street in Borough Park, owned by Ugo Margiottiello and constructed in 1931, has experienced several significant maintenance issues over the past few years, particularly regarding heating systems. The most recent events, occurring in October 2022, involved emergency heat and hot water complaints for the entire building on both October 5 and October 8, though in both cases, HPD verified that the issues had been resolved.

A similar heat and hot water emergency complaint was recorded and resolved in January 2021, indicating a recurring pattern with the building's heating systems. Additionally, there was a water supply plumbing emergency in May 2022 that remained partially open upon closure. The building has consistently maintained compliance with bedbug reporting requirements, with the most recent annual filing in December 2024 showing zero infested units in the 2023-2024 period.

Prior filings between 2021 and 2024, including the most recent December 2024 report, have all indicated no infestations or eradication needs, suggesting effective pest management practices. A Housing Maintenance Code violation was recorded in April 2021 regarding the failure to file an annual bedbug report, though this appears to have been resolved as subsequent filings have been timely and accurate. Overall, while the building has experienced mechanical issues primarily related to heating systems, it has demonstrated proper compliance with bedbug reporting requirements and has generally addressed each maintenance complaint, with HPD confirming resolution in most cases.
