448 Senator Street, Brooklyn, NY 11220

The three-story, six-unit building at 448 Senator Street in Bay Ridge, owned by Osvaldo Torres, is a New Law tenement constructed in 1922. The property has experienced recurring heating issues, with two documented complaints about heat and hot water outages in early 2022 - one affecting the entire building in January and a second affecting individual apartments in April, though inspections in both cases found no violations.

The building's safety systems underwent significant scrutiny in 2022, particularly in April, when violations were issued for multiple safety concerns in Apartment 1F, including missing smoke and carbon monoxide detectors, defective self-closing doors, and a separate Bedbug Report violation requiring annual filing. While these violations were subsequently closed in May 2022, they highlighted important safety system deficiencies at the time. More recent inspections in 2023 and 2024 revealed recurring Bedbug Report violations, with notices issued in March 2023 and April 2024, though these appear to be administrative in nature rather than indicating an active infestation, as subsequent filings consistently show zero infested or eradicated units from 2024 through 2025.

The building's most recent Bedbug Reports (through June 2025) show no evidence of infestations during the reporting periods between 2022-2025. A single rodent inspection in 2009 resulted in a passing grade, indicating compliance with pest control regulations at that time. While the building has had various violations in recent years, most have been promptly addressed, and the most recent Bedbug Reports suggest ongoing compliance with reporting requirements, though the frequency of violations in 2022 and 2023 indicates some challenges with building maintenance procedures during that period.
