6814 Owls Head Court, Brooklyn, NY 11220

6814 Owls Head Court is a 3-story, 6-unit New Law tenement building located in Bay Ridge, Brooklyn, and owned by Sofia Vasilakos. Built in 1931, the building has experienced several significant maintenance issues in recent years. Most notably, in September 2023, there was a water supply problem that required intervention from the Department of Housing Preservation and Development.

Both the spring and fall of 2023 saw violations related to fire escape access, specifically concerning air conditioning units obstructing egress on the 2nd and 3rd stories, though these violations were certified as corrected by November 2023. The building has also maintained an annual bedbug reporting compliance record showing no infestation from 2021 through 2024, with the most recent report showing zero infested or eradicated units. The property has a documented history of rodent activity, particularly during 2019-2022, with multiple inspections showing rat activity and the application of bait in response to the problem.

The building's most recent Housing Maintenance Code violations were all closed promptly, suggesting that while issues arise, the management generally addresses them in a timely manner. Prior to the listed water supply issue, the most recent complaint was from 2021 regarding rat sightings, with multiple reports during that year showing a pattern of rodent-related concerns. The building was also found to have inadequate exterior lighting in 2018, though this violation was corrected relatively quickly.
