1862 East 14th Street, Brooklyn, NY 11229
1862 East 14th Street is a 6-story, 47-unit New Law tenement building in Sheepshead Bay, constructed in 1931 and currently owned by Brenda Geller. The property has experienced recurring issues with elevator service, evidenced by at least 10 elevator-related complaints between 2023 and 2025, with the most recent complaint about single device service dating from June 2025 being marked as active. Recent concerns include multiple ongoing complaints about construction lead dust in common areas and apartments between May and June 2025, and reports of broken or missing window guards in May 2025, though HPD inspections found no housing law violations in these cases.
The building faced several heat and hot water complaints in March 2025, with inspectors confirming restoration of services during their responses. Recent inspections and violations indicate various maintenance issues, particularly related to elevator safety and maintenance. The elevator system has been the subject of multiple violations between 2019 and 2023, including missing door lock monitoring and water in the pit, though many of these violations have been resolved.
The building was cited in late 2024 for several maintenance issues including unsatisfactory garbage storage, electrical outlet safety, and elevator door glass problems, though these violations have since been closed. The property has consistently passed rodent inspections in recent years, with only one instance of rat activity noted in August 2024. Bedbug reports from 2021 to 2025 show no infestations, with all dwelling units reporting zero instances of infestation or re-infestation. The building's maintenance history suggests ongoing attention to elevator safety remains critical, while recent construction activity has generated particular concern about lead dust in living spaces.
