1454 43rd Street, Brooklyn, NY 11219
1454 43rd Street is a five-story, 39-unit New Law Tenement building located in Borough Park and owned by Louis Koplowitz. The property, constructed in 1927, has experienced recurring heat and hot water issues over the past year, with multiple tenant complaints filed between November 2024 and January 2025 indicating system failures affecting the entire building. While some complaints were resolved quickly, several inspections found conditions not violating HPD housing laws, though one instance in December 2024 noted confirmed restoration of heat and hot water by occupants during inspection.
The building has faced several maintenance challenges in recent years, including an infestation of mice and roaches documented in Apartment D7 in December 2024, and multiple lead paint hazard compliance issues in September 2024 affecting apartments B1, B5, BMT, and E8. Additional concerns included a blocked fire escape documented in May 2024 and a period of refuse accumulation at the building's front in August 2024. Historical complaints include multiple reports of illegal commercial use in residential zones between 2019 and 2024, though inspections often resulted in access issues or found no violations.
The building's emergency response history shows regular heat and hot water system failures requiring HPD intervention, with multiple violations and complaints regarding building maintenance and code compliance. Despite these issues, the building has maintained a consistent record of no bedbug infestations reported since 2018, though rodent inspections in 2019 indicated some rodent activity. The most recent complaints as of 2025 are being addressed, with at least one active complaint regarding illegal commercial use in a residential zone.
