8747 Bay Parkway, Brooklyn, NY 11214
The 66-unit, 6-story New Law Tenement at 8747 Bay Parkway in Gravesend, built in 1928 and currently owned by Renee Wachtler, has experienced several significant maintenance and safety issues in recent years. The building has repeatedly faced heating and hot water system failures, with complaints recorded in 2023 and 2024 for both individual apartments and the entire building. Most recently, in April 2025, there was a rodent sighting that resulted in health department violations requiring follow-up inspections.
The property has also dealt with persistent pest issues, including multiple bedbug infestations reported annually from 2019-2024, with the most recent instance affecting one unit in late 2024. In terms of building maintenance, there have been various health and safety concerns including unsanitary conditions, with multiple violations related to interior paint, plaster, and flooring conditions. Apartment 5D was specifically cited in 2024 for multiple violations including lead paint hazards and other maintenance issues that were subsequently certified as corrected. The elevator system has required attention, with violations noted in 2019-2020 and an Oath Violation served in 2022 regarding multiple elevator safety concerns.
Historical complaints have included issues with egress systems, site conditions, and electrical wiring, though many of these were ultimately found to have no violations warranting enforcement action. The building's record shows consistent attention to rodent control, with both inspections and service requests documenting varying levels of rodent activity since 2016, though the most recent inspections in 2025 indicate compliance. While many violations and complaints have been resolved through inspections and corrective actions, the recurring nature of heating system failures, pest infestations, and maintenance issues suggests ongoing challenges in building operations and maintenance oversight. The property has received various permits for work performed in 2020, though specific details of the work are not provided in the available records.
