72 Bay 37th Street, Brooklyn, NY 11214

The two-story, 4-unit New Law Tenement building at 72 Bay 37th Street in Gravesend, owned by Sana Tan and built in 1924, has experienced several notable maintenance and safety issues over the past few years. In early 2022, the property faced multiple complaints regarding mold and water-related issues, including sponge texture problems, though not all resulted in violations.

A significant cluster of violations was documented in early 2022 and late 2022, particularly affecting apartment 2R, including mandatory repairs for lead-based paint hazards, water condensation issues, and problems with building security systems such as door self-closing mechanisms and the intercom system. The building also received an official where the Annual Bedbug Report requirement was not properly filed, though subsequent filings from 2021 through 2025 consistently show zero infested units or eradicated units, indicating effective pest management protocols.

The most recent inspection record from March 2023 indicates only one minor violation related to bedbug reporting, which appears to have been resolved. While the building faced several maintenance challenges between 2021-2022, including issues with window frames and various other repairs, the resolution of these violations suggests improved maintenance responsiveness. The property has maintained a consistent record of reporting under the bedbug reporting requirement, showing no infestations or related issues since the requirement's implementation, which demonstrates positive pest management maintenance.
