1645 New York Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11210

The 5-story, 8-unit residential building at 1645 New York Avenue in East Flatbush, owned by Ami Tauber, was constructed in 2018 and has exhibited several maintenance and compliance issues throughout its operational history. Most recently, in July 2024, the building experienced an unsanitary condition related to pests, though this complaint was resolved within four days. Prior to this, in March 2022, there was a reported slow water leak that was investigated but resulted in no violations being issued.

The building has a documented pattern of bedbug reporting compliance, with all annual filings showing zero infested, eradicated, or re-infested units from 2019 through 2024. During its construction period in 2018-2019, the building faced significant scrutiny from regulatory agencies, with multiple Department of Buildings (DOB) complaints and violations. These included issues with construction safety measures, inadequate housekeeping, and non-compliance with stop work orders, particularly during March 2019 when violations were issued for failure to maintain safety requirements and inadequate housekeeping creating tripping hazards.

The construction phase also generated multiple ECB violations related to safety violations, though most were resolved without monetary penalties. Notably, the building passed a rodent inspection in April 2019 and has maintained a consistent record of submitting bedbug reports with zero infestation occurrences. The most recent bedbug report filed in December 2024 covers the period from November 2023 to October 2024, continuing the building's pattern of maintaining pest control compliance.
