1773 66th Street, Brooklyn, NY 11204

The 23-unit, 4-story New Law Tenement building at 1773 66th Street in Bensonhurst, owned by Anastasios Vasilakos, has experienced recurring issues with heat and hot water across the entire building since 2018, with the most recent complaints occurring in January 2024 and April 2023. These emergency complaints were generally resolved, though in several instances, HPD was unable to gain access to units for inspection.

The building underwent significant maintenance in 2022, including repairs to a self-closing door, fire retardant materials, and wall painting in the public hall, along with the resolution of several violations in apartment C5 related to window repairs, plaster surfaces, and smoke detector issues. The building has maintained an active bedbug reporting history from 2019 through 2024, with all reports indicating zero infested dwelling units, suggesting effective pest management. The most recent bedbug report, filed in May 2024 for the period ending October 2023, indicated no infestations.

Prior to this, similar reports in 2022 and 2021 also documented no issues. A rodent inspection in 2010 passed, indicating no significant rodent problems have been documented since. The building's age (constructed in 1931) and history of recurring heat/water issues suggest ongoing maintenance challenges, though the resolution of various violations and the absence of recent bedbug problems indicate some improvements in building management.
