1724 West 13th Street, Brooklyn, NY 11223
The 2-story, 4-unit New Law Tenement building at 1724 West 13th Street in Gravesend, owned by Xiujuan Chen, has experienced recurring heat and hot water issues over 2023 and 2024, with three emergency complaints filed between April 2024 and November 2023. The most recent service request from May 2024 was closed without inspection access, following an April 2024 complaint that was resolved with verified corrections. A November 2023 complaint led to the issuance of violations for inadequate heat and hot water provisions.
Additional notable issues emerged during November 2023, including unsanitary conditions (with complaints about mold and pests), electrical problems (including lighting issues), and plumbing concerns (specifically regarding a sink). Violation notices from November 2023 indicate multiple problems in apartment 2R, including heating, hot water, pest control, and safety system deficiencies, though some related to carbon monoxide detectors and smoke detectors had not been certified as corrected by early 2024. The building has a history of maintenance challenges, with several open violations as of 2023-2024.
These include issues with window frames, plumbing fixtures, and various safety equipment. A significant inspection in late 2022 revealed exterior facade problems, with cracks and erosion documented on the building's face, resulting in an Environmental Control Board violation and a $1,250 penalty. Earlier building history shows a passed rodent inspection in January 2021. The structure, built in 1924, has been subject to multiple emergency complaints across various categories, indicating ongoing maintenance and building systems challenges that have persisted through 2023 and into 2024.
