413 68th Street, Brooklyn, NY 11220

The three-story New Law tenement building at 413 68th Street in Bay Ridge, owned by Nasir Bensaud, has experienced several notable issues in recent years. Most significantly, there was a series of heat and hot water outages documented between February and April 2020, with multiple emergency complaints filed by tenants.

While some of these incidents were resolved quickly, they indicate a concerning pattern of heating system problems during that period. More recently, the building has been dealing with rodent issues, with multiple inspections and bait applications recorded throughout 2022. The most recent rodent inspection in February 2023 passed, suggesting some improvement in the situation.

Currently, there are open violations related to the annual bedbug reporting requirement for 2021-2024, indicating that the property owner has not filed the necessary documentation as per HPD regulations. The building has also had various maintenance issues requiring attention, as evidenced by multiple violations issued between 2020-2021, including problems with a blocked fire escape egress, an illegal fastened slide bolt at the bulkhead door, and maintenance issues with a door in apartment 2R. Additionally, there is an active Department of Buildings violation from November 2019 regarding the failure to file the 2017 boiler inspection report, which remains unresolved as of the latest data available in 2023.
