1684 West 8th Street, Brooklyn, NY 11223
The 25-unit, 4-story New Law Tenement at 1684 West 8th Street in Gravesend, owned by Jerry Miller, has experienced recurring issues with heat and hot water systems over the past decade. Six documented heat/hot water complaints from 2018 through 2024 indicate persistent building-wide problems, with the most recent violation recorded in December 2023 affecting apartment D3 on the fourth floor.
The property has also faced challenges with smoking compliance in recent months, with three documented violations in 2024 where smoking was reported in smoke-free areas, though these were resolved through Health Department inspections. The building's maintenance history shows a pattern of addressing various violations, including several from 2018-2020 that required repair of specific apartment issues in B4 such as defective windows, doors, and plaster surfaces.
Safety features were also a focus, with violations related to fire escape egress and public hall signage. The property has maintained a clean record regarding pests, with no documented bedbug infestations in the past seven years, and had one historical rodent compliance inspection in 2014 that passed, following an initial rat activity report. While the building's age (1928) naturally brings some maintenance challenges, the owners have generally responded to violations and complaints as they arise, with most issues being closed after appropriate resolutions were implemented.
