540 82nd Street, Brooklyn, NY 11209

540 82nd Street in Bay Ridge is a 3-story, 6-unit New Law Tenement building constructed in 1922 and currently owned by Kyriacoula Notias. The property has experienced recurring electrical issues, particularly during 2024, with multiple power outages and wiring complaints between April and June 2024, some designated as immediate emergencies. The building has also faced challenges with its heating system, with several complaints about heat and hot water issues in 2023.

A series of violations related to building safety and maintenance were identified in 2024, including missing crucial safety notifications regarding smoke detectors, carbon monoxide detectors, and gas leak procedures in the first-story public hall, as well as deficiencies in the posting of inspection certificates and building registration information. These violations, classified as A violations by the Housing Maintenance Code, are currently open and awaiting resolution. The building's maintenance history shows a pattern of electrical problems, with multiple 311 service requests and housing maintenance code complaints regarding lighting and power issues.

There have also been complaints about flooring conditions, with at least one instance in 2023 where HPD was unable to gain access to inspect the issue. While there have been some structural and maintenance concerns, such as plumbing issues in 2021 and a period of paint/plaster violations, the building has maintained a clean record regarding bedbug infestations, with all recent reports indicating zero infested units from 2020 through 2025. Rodent inspections from 2011 and 2013 show generally positive results, though there was one failure noted in July 2013 for "Other Reasons."
