861 East 27th Street, Brooklyn, NY 11210
861 East 27th Street is a 6-story, 53-unit New Law Tenement building constructed in 1931 and currently owned by Kings Realty LLC. The building has experienced recurring issues with heat and hot water systems, with at least eight emergency complaints related to these systems between 2022 and 2025, though most recent investigations found no violations.
The property has also faced maintenance challenges, including two recent complaints in 2025 regarding mold and wall conditions, which inspectors were unable to properly assess due to access issues. An inspection in November 2024 resulted in several violations for Apartment 2F, including problems with pest control (roach infestation), missing safety devices (smoke and carbon monoxide detectors), and door-related issues, though these were certified as corrected by late November 2024. Historical records show the building has maintained fairly regular compliance with pest management practices, with three documented infestations (two in 2023-2024, one in 2022-2023) being successfully addressed.
The building's exterior mechanical systems have required attention, as evidenced by violations related to energy efficiency reporting in 2021-2022, though these were ultimately dismissed. More recent inspections in 2024-2025 have highlighted ongoing challenges with basic building maintenance and safety systems, particularly regarding heating infrastructure and compliance with housing maintenance codes. While the building has passed several rodent inspections between 2012 and 2015, the persistence of heating and maintenance issues suggests ongoing challenges with building systems and infrastructure.
