973 47th Street, Brooklyn, NY 11219
The 20-unit, 4-story New Law Tenement building at 973 47th Street in Borough Park, owned by Harry Stern, was constructed in 1922 and has experienced several significant maintenance events over recent years. Most recently, in April 2025, the building faced a water leak issue that resulted in violations from the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD), though the exact resolution status of these violations remains uncertain as of the latest available data.
The building has also shown a recurring pattern of violations related to bedbug reporting requirements; between 2021 and 2024, multiple violations were issued for failure to file the required annual bedbug reports, though surprisingly all three subsequent reports (2022, 2023, and 2024) indicated no infested dwelling units, no previously infested units, and no re-infested units, suggesting either effective pest management or potential recordkeeping discrepancies. The property has a documented history of compliance reporting, with bedbug filings showing a consistent pattern of zero infestation cases reported from 2020 through 2024.
While the building's recent water leak issue represents the most current maintenance concern, the absence of recurring bedbug issues in recent filings is notable, considering the previous violation history. The water leak situation, being a direct impact on resident comfort, appears to be the most significant current maintenance challenge facing the building as of 2025.
