521 83rd Street, Brooklyn, NY 11209
The 6-unit, 3-story New Law Tenement building at 521 83rd Street in Bay Ridge, owned by Maria Doxakis Kantaris and constructed in 1922, has experienced several significant maintenance issues in recent years. Most notably, in late 2023, there were multiple emergency complaints involving the 3rd floor apartment (3F) related to unsanitary conditions (mold), electrical wiring problems, and ceiling paint/plaster issues, with some of these complaints showing violations.
A December 2023 inspection revealed several serious violations in 3F, including missing carbon monoxide detectors, hot water exceeding 130 degrees, and missing smoke detectors. Additional violations were noted for self-closing doors in various locations of the building, including a bulkhead door on the 3rd story and the door leading to the south yard on the 1st story. The building's maintenance history shows recurring issues with mold, electrical systems, and ceiling conditions, particularly in late 2023 when multiple complaints were filed between November 30 and December 4.
While earlier issues in 2018 primarily concerned pests and garbage storage, these were resolved without violations. Importantly, the building has maintained a pest-free record according to bedbug reports from 2021 through 2024, with all reports showing zero infested units. The property currently has open violations related to door self-closing mechanisms, though many recent violations from late 2023 were closed after being addressed.
