244 68th Street, Brooklyn, NY 11220
244 68th Street is a 32-unit, 4-story New Law tenement building in Bay Ridge, constructed in 1928 and currently owned by Albert Schron. The building has experienced recurring heat and hot water issues, with multiple complaints in December 2022, April 2019, and a recent water leak complaint in early 2025 that HPD was unable to inspect.
The property underwent significant maintenance work in 2022, with violations issued and subsequently addressed concerning self-closing doors in apartments C1, 4C, and 5D, as well as various issues in apartment D6 including water temperature, paint, and surface repairs. Previous maintenance concerns included plumbing issues (bathtub/shower) and mold problems in 2022, along with paint/plaster and flooring/stairs violations in earlier years.
Recent documentation shows consistent bedbug control measures with no infestations reported in the past six years, and while there is currently an active violation regarding the display of energy efficiency information (issued April 2021), this appears to be the only outstanding regulatory issue. The building's history includes one attempted inspection for illegal hotel rooms in December 2019 (inspection access was not granted), and several emergency and non-emergency complaints have been properly addressed through HPD's intervention. The recent water leak complaint from January 2025 remains the most current service request on record, with HPD advising that a follow-up inspection request is necessary for proper evaluation.
