1049 East 15th Street, Brooklyn, NY 11230
This four-story, 11-unit New Law Tenement building located at 1049 East 15th Street in Midwood, currently owned by Moshe Deutsch, has experienced persistent maintenance issues over the past two years, with particular concerns regarding heat and hot water systems. Between 2023 and 2024, there were multiple complaints about heat/hot water problems, with the most recent complaints occurring in June 2024.
Water-related issues have also been significant, with seven reports of water leaks between September 2023 and April 2024, including one incident of "heavy flow" in April 2024. The building has active violations with the Department of Buildings for failure to file annual external low-pressure inspections from 2018-2021, as well as a violation from 2019 for not filing the 2017 boiler inspection report. Recent inspection records from October 2023 revealed several violations in Apartment 5C, including issues with mice infestation, peeling paint, problematic plaster surfaces, water leaks, and defective smoke and carbon monoxide detectors - though these were subsequently certified as corrected by the end of October 2023.
Apartment 2D has open violations from September 2023 regarding ceiling leaks and plaster issues, with certified dates extending into late 2023. The building's pest control history shows a pattern of bedbug infestations between 2018 and 2024, with one documented case in 2022 and another in 2023, though the most recent report from December 2024 shows no active infestations. The property has undergone various maintenance responses, with HPD frequently being unable to gain access to units for inspection purposes, and multiple complaints being closed with notes indicating conditions were restored, though residents were advised to refile complaints if issues persisted.
