1770 63rd Street, Brooklyn, NY 11204

1770 63rd Street is a 5-unit, 3-story New Law Tenement building located in Borough Park, constructed in 1931 and currently owned by Wai Guan. The property has experienced several maintenance issues over the past three years, with the most pressing concerns being the failure to properly file boiler inspection reports in 2018, 2019, and 2020, as indicated by active Department of Buildings violations issued in June 2023.

The building has also had issues with its window guards, documented in 2022 as both a 311 service request and emergency violation, though no HPD violations were ultimately issued following inspection. Other notable incidents include a heat/hot water complaint in December 2018 that could not be inspected due to lack of access, and a February 2022 window guard issue that was resolved, showing appropriate regulatory follow-through by the owner. The building's history includes various safety and maintenance matters, with violations related to boiler room signage in 2021 and door self-closing mechanisms in 2021.

Two significant complaints were filed with the Department of Buildings: one regarding a defective/inoperative boiler in 2021 (which resulted in an Oath violation) and another concerning an alleged illegal conversion in 2018, though no violations were warranted upon inspection. While the building appears to have maintained a good record regarding pest control, with regular bedbug reporting from 2021 through 2025 showing no infestations or re-infestations, and passed rodent inspections in 2014, the recent violations regarding boiler inspection compliance are worth noting as they relate to building safety systems. The building has demonstrated proper regulatory compliance with respect to bedbug reporting, consistently filing zero infestation reports for multiple consecutive years, suggesting effective management of this particular maintenance issue.
