1667 West 6th Street, Brooklyn, NY 11223

The three-story, six-unit New Law tenement building at 1667 West 6th Street in Gravesend, owned by Roman Mirkin, has experienced some maintenance and compliance issues in recent years. Most notably, in 2021, the building faced serious boiler system deficiencies that resulted in both a complaint and an Environmental Control Board violation, including missing isolation valves, manual reset low water cut-off (LWCO) devices, and inadequate pipe insulation, for which a penalty of $1,250 was imposed.

This same year, the Department of Buildings issued a violation related to a defective or inoperative boiler, leading to an oath violation being served. More recently, in June 2023, another violation was issued for failure to file the 2020 external low-pressure inspection report, which remains active as of the current date. On a positive note, the building has maintained a clean record regarding bedbug issues over the past several years, with all recent annual filings (from 2019 through 2024) showing zero infested, eradicated, or re-infested dwelling units.

This consistent lack of bedbug incidents suggests effective pest management practices in place. While the building has experienced some significant boiler-related compliance issues that impact resident safety and comfort, particularly in 2021, the absence of recent bedbug reports indicates at least one area of consistent positive maintenance. The property was built in 1928 and has been operational under its current ownership for several years, with these being the most notable events on record for the past six years.
