4826 New Utrecht Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11219

The three-story, four-unit New Law Tenement building at 4826 New Utrecht Avenue in Borough Park, owned by Constantino Sarni, has a significant history of maintenance violations and safety concerns dating back several years. Most recently, the building has multiple open Housing Maintenance Code violations (2021-2024) related to the failure to file annual bedbug reports, which have remained unaddressed over multiple years despite inspections. The property has faced serious structural issues, with three active ECB violations from 2021 citing the failure to comply with orders regarding building maintenance, including problems with stone and window conditions on the 49th Street side of the building documented in a September 2020 inspection.

These violations carry substantial penalties, with one active violation showing a $1,250 fine. The building's inspection history reveals several concerning events, including a partial vacate order issued in July 2018 following complaints of building shaking/vibration. Previous violations from 2018-2019 indicate problems with unauthorized work, construction safety issues, and failure to maintain proper permits, though some of these older violations are now listed as resolved.

The Department of Buildings has also issued multiple violations for failure to certify corrections of immediately hazardous issues, with some of these violations still active as of the latest data. While there were some attempted compliance measures, such as the issuance of a permit in October 2020 for sidewalk improvements, the ongoing nature of the violations suggests persistent maintenance challenges at the property. The building's violation record indicates a pattern of delayed responses to regulatory requirements and safety concerns, particularly regarding bedbug reporting compliance.
