7802 3rd Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11209
The 6-unit, 4-story Old Law Tenement building at 7802 3rd Avenue in Bay Ridge, owned by Joseph Bova, was constructed in 1928 and has experienced several notable maintenance issues in recent years. The building has faced recurring electrical problems, with reports of power outages in 2021 and 2024, though both issues were resolved according to HPD inspections.
More concerning are the heating issues, with a February 2024 complaint about no heat/hot water affecting the entire building, and multiple violations related to safety systems in Apartment 5, including defective smoke and carbon monoxide detectors, door issues, and plumbing problems, all documented during a comprehensive April 2019 inspection that also noted concerns with flooring, washing facilities, and mold. Recent building maintenance has been called into question, with active violations from 2023-2024 regarding building facade issues, including missing bricks above window lentils and water damage to storage areas. These violations carry penalties totaling $6,250.
The building's systems have faced scrutiny as evidenced by multiple "Failure to Maintain" complaints and the need for sidewalk protection measures noted in 2023. While the annual bedbug reporting requirements appear to have been met with no infestations reported, the building's maintenance history shows periodic issues affecting resident comfort and safety. The property has generally passed recent rodent inspections, suggesting some success in pest management, though there was a rat activity report in 2018.
