202 Avenue U, Brooklyn, NY 11223

The three-story, four-unit tenement building at 202 Avenue U in Gravesend, owned by Michael Koulouroudis and constructed in 1931, has experienced several significant maintenance issues over the years. Most notably, there is an ongoing pattern of building code violations related to bedbug reporting requirements, with open violations from 2021 through 2024 indicating non-compliance with filing annual bedbug reports as mandated by the Housing Maintenance Code.

The building has also faced multiple violations in Apartment 3F since a significant incident in November 2018, including issues with window guards, door closers, carbon monoxide detectors, smoke detectors, and persistent mold problems affecting approximately 30-40 square feet in two different rooms. In March 2019, there were concerns regarding the building's boiler system, with violations related to a defective/inoperative boiler and safety issues including a missing remote switch, an improperly closing door, and holes in the walls of the boiler room, resulting in a penalty of $312.

The property has also experienced multiple complaints and service requests in 2018 for various issues including mold (for which violations were issued), window frame problems, and heat/hot water concerns, though many of these were classified as "non-emergency" and resulted in no violations. While some violations have been addressed over time, the pattern of open violations, particularly regarding bedbug reporting requirements and the original 2018 issues in Apartment 3F, suggests ongoing maintenance challenges within this New Law Tenement building.
