881 54th Street, Brooklyn, NY 11220
The 6-story, 10-unit New Law Tenement at 881 54th Street in Borough Park, owned by Ray Huang, has experienced significant maintenance and safety issues in recent years. Most notably, there were heat and hot water complaints in July 2023 affecting the entire building, though inspectors were unable to gain access for verification.
The building currently faces multiple open violations from a July 2023 inspection, including failure to post required safety notices regarding heating systems, gas leak procedures, smoke detector requirements, and building registration information in the first-story public hall. These violations also include the need to properly display the bedbug reporting requirements, which has been an ongoing compliance issue with similar violations noted in 2021, 2022, and 2023. The property has a concerning history of access issues for inspections, particularly regarding illegal conversion and hotel room complaints, with multiple "Inspector Unable To Gain Access" dispositions recorded between 2019 and 2025.
Recent building systems concerns include a 2024 ECB violation regarding malfunctioning front entry door hardware that impeded egress and an August 2023 violation for an out-of-service elevator. The building's maintenance record shows some improvement in pest management, with a bedbug report filed for 2024 showing eradication of all 10 units, and a passed rodent inspection in August 2023. However, these recent improvements are somewhat overshadowed by the numerous open violations and recurring issues with building safety notice compliance, heat/hot water systems, and access for inspections.
