1026 66th Street, Brooklyn, NY 11219

The 6-unit, 3-story New Law Tenement building at 1026 66th Street in Dyker Heights, owned by Anthony Bono, has experienced several maintenance and safety issues in recent years. In May 2023, the building had multiple complaints requiring HPD inspections, resulting in violations related to fire escape safety, garbage/recycling storage, and window-related problems (both frames and panes).

The building was also cited for several administrative code violations in June 2023, including failures to properly post safety notices regarding carbon monoxide detectors, gas leak procedures, and smoke detector requirements in the public hall. While most of these violations were certified as corrected by July 2023, one significant issue remains open: the need to repair or replace defective self-closing doors leading to the west yard. The building has maintained a clean record regarding bedbug infestations, with zero reported cases in the past six reporting periods from 2019 through 2024.

Historical records show a penalty of $2,500 was imposed in 2019 for defacing a posted vacate order at the front entry door, though this violation was subsequently resolved. In 2018, there was a temporary suspension of plumbing work permits, but this was rescinded with all related work covered under a different permit. The most recent inspection of record from 2023-2024 indicates the building has been generally proactive in addressing violations, though the outstanding door closure issue and the nature of the recent safety violations warrant attention.
