814 Kings Highway, Brooklyn, NY 11223

814 Kings Highway is a 4-story, 36-unit New Law Tenement building constructed in 1923, currently owned by Jack Gora. Recent inspection records from 2025 show multiple water-related issues, with four separate complaints about leaks (including slow leaks and damp spots) filed in May 2025 alone, though inspection access was not granted in these cases. These complaints followed several other water-related issues, including a May 2025 inspection that resulted in violations for paint/plaster ceiling problems.

The building experienced significant heating issues in late 2024, with two heat/hot water complaints in December 2024, including an emergency complaint about inadequate hot water exceeding 130 degrees in Apartment B1, which remains an active violation as of July 2025. Additional ongoing violations from 2024 include pest infestation (specifically roaches) in Apartment C4, along with multiple door and bathroom-related issues documented between July and September 2024. The building's maintenance history shows a pattern of water and heating-related problems over the past two years. While there have been multiple inspection requests and violation notices, access for inspection has often not been granted, leading to complaints being closed without resolution.

Notably, the building has maintained a bedbug-free status in recent years, with no reported infestations between 2020 and 2025, though there was one reported case in 2019 that was subsequently eradicated. The property also had a violation for failure to file an energy benchmarking report in 2021, which remains active. Other maintenance issues have included plumbing problems, wall and ceiling damage, and a pest infestation that was documented but has apparently been addressed. A 2021 complaint regarding electrical wiring had no violations warranted upon inspection.
