1727 West 13th Street, Brooklyn, NY 11223
The three-unit, two-story former New Law Tenement at 1727 West 13th Street in Gravesend, Brooklyn, owned by Gail Frohlinger and constructed in 1925, has several concerning and unresolved issues as of 2025. The building currently faces open violations from 2022 through 2024 related to the failure to submit mandatory annual bedbug reports to the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD).
More significantly, there are multiple active Environmental Control Board (ECB) violations from 2019, with penalties totaling $50,000, concerning work conducted without proper permits, including unauthorized water, waste, and gas line installations in the cellar level. These ECB violations stem from a January 2019 inspection where improper installations were documented, and despite orders to correct the violations, the property failed to comply, resulting in additional penalties.
The building's recent history shows recurring pest issues, with documented rodent sightings in late 2018 (both rat and mouse), though subsequent inspections in November 2018 and October 2018 passed without findings. There were also multiple complaints filed in 2018-2019 regarding electrical wiring issues and suspected illegal conversions, though most of these complaints resulted in inspectors being unable to gain access or found no violations warranting further action. The property has maintained a consistent pattern of non-compliance with bedbug reporting requirements from 2021 through 2024, as evidenced by four consecutive open violations in the Housing Maintenance Code category, all related to bedbug reporting requirements.
