7607 17th Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11214

The three-story, six-unit New Law Tenement building at 7607 17th Avenue in Bensonhurst, owned by Gerardo Giannattasio and constructed in 1931, has experienced several notable incidents regarding building maintenance and safety over the past few years. The most significant recent events include two heat and hot water-related complaints in early 2019, with one being investigated and requiring a follow-up due to lack of access, though no violations were ultimately issued.

The property has maintained a consistent record of submitting bedbug reports with zero infested units reported in the most recent filings (2025, 2023, and 2021), indicating effective pest management. Between 2021 and 2023, there were three recorded Housing Maintenance Code violations related to the failure to submit annual bedbug reports, all classified as Class A violations (though records don't show their current status).

In terms of structural and safety concerns, there is one open Class B violation from 2019 regarding self-closing door requirements in the entrance to apartment 7 on the third story. Additionally, there was a 2019 Environmental Control Board violation regarding an unpermitted curb cut at the property's exposure 2, though this was resolved with no penalties imposed. The building's documentation shows regular compliance with reporting requirements since 2021, and as of the latest filings in 2023 and 2025, there have been no reported issues with bedbugs or other vermin, suggesting improved maintenance practices in recent years.
