2514 East 7th Street, Brooklyn, NY 11235

The 60-unit, 6-story Class A building at 2514 East 7th Street in Sheepshead Bay, owned by Martin Leventhal, has experienced several maintenance and compliance issues since 2019, with the most recent violations concerning energy reporting requirements. In 2023, the building received two violations for failure to file the required energy benchmarking reports, with one violation remaining active as of October 2023.

The building has shown proactive bedbug management, with zero reported infestations in the past four reporting periods from 2022 through 2025, though there was one documented case in 2018-2019 that was resolved. Notable maintenance issues include a significant water leak reported in September 2019 affecting apartment 5B, which also experienced problems with mold and required repairs to safety equipment including smoke and carbon monoxide detectors. The building has undergone various inspections and received multiple violations over the years, including safety-related issues in 2020 regarding emergency equipment in apartment 5B, as well as several administrative violations in 2019 related to building maintenance requirements such as posting proper notices and maintaining safety equipment.

The elevator has been a recurring area of concern, with three separate complaints about single device service in 2019, though all were resolved with no violations found upon inspection. Recent records show attention to regulatory compliance, with a permit issued in September 2021 for unspecified work, and the building appears to have maintained rodent-free status based on inspections in 2019 and 2011. The property has demonstrated improved compliance with bedbug reporting requirements since 2020, with multiple consecutive periods showing zero affected units.
