2046 Bay Ridge Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11204

The three-story, six-unit New Law tenement at 2046 Bay Ridge Avenue in Bensonhurst, owned by Haydee Vargas, has experienced several maintenance issues in recent years. Most notably, in March-April 2025, there were multiple complaints regarding unsanitary conditions (including mold and pests), paint/plaster issues, and problems with appliances, though no violations were issued following inspections. A concerning carbon monoxide detector complaint was also logged during this period, with an attempted but incomplete inspection.

The building has a documented history of heat and hot water problems, with emergency complaints registered for both the entire building (November 2023) and an individual apartment (January 2022), though both issues were reportedly resolved promptly. The property had a brief electrical issue in March 2021 involving no lighting. Inspection records reveal some historical violations, including a 2021 citation for a defective vestibule door lock and a 2018 pest control violation regarding roaches in one apartment.

While the building was recently cited in April 2024 for not filing the required annual bedbug report, this seems to be an administrative issue rather than indicating a current infestation, as the property has maintained a consistent record of zero reported bedbug infestations or re-infestations in their annual reports from 2019 through 2025. An active parking violation from 2018 remains on record, though this may no longer be relevant given its age. The building's maintenance history shows a pattern of various repairs and issues requiring attention, particularly regarding water heating systems and general maintenance, though most recent complaints have been addressed without resulting in formal violations.
