914 42nd Street, Brooklyn, NY 11219
The 24-unit, 4-story New Law Tenement building at 914 42nd Street in Borough Park, constructed in 1923 and currently owned by 914 42nd St LLC, has experienced several significant maintenance issues over the past two years. Most notably, there were repeated problems with windows during 2024-2025, including broken window guards and window frame issues, with emergency service requests filed in June 2025 and violations issued in September 2024. The building faced a serious infrastructure problem in December 2024 with a heat and hot water outage that was resolved before inspection.
The September 2024 inspection revealed multiple violations, including pest infestations (specifically roaches and mice), door/window issues, and problems with walls requiring repairs and repainting. The violations identified in September 2024 were all subsequently certified as corrected by October 2024. The building's maintenance history shows some recurring themes, including fire safety concerns related to flower pots obstructing fire escapes, and multiple issues with window components needing repair or replacement.
Earlier violations from 2023-2024 included problems with garbage accumulation in fire passageways and roof access security. However, it's worth noting that the building has maintained a consistent record of zero bedbug infestations across multiple reporting periods from 2021 to 2025, and a rodent inspection in 2013 showed compliance, though there was one initial failure for other reasons during that period. The most recent bedbug report from June 2025 confirmed no infestations, and while there were multiple violations issued in 2024, these were primarily addressed and closed, suggesting responsive management to regulatory requirements.
