This 24-unit, 4-story New Law Tenement building located in Sunnyside was constructed in 1928 and is currently owned by Mou Lee. The building has experienced several recurring issues in recent years, with the most significant concerns occurring in late 2024, including an emergency heat/hot water outage affecting the entire building in December 2024, and multiple safety-related complaints in November 2024 regarding carbon monoxide detectors, smoke detectors, and broken window guards.
The building is currently facing several open Housing Maintenance Code Violations as of December 2024, including issues with plexiglass installation at the main entrance doors, missing fire safety equipment, and various maintenance requirements related to building signage and mail receptacles. The property has a documented history of maintenance challenges, including emergency plumbing issues in March 2020, safety concerns in 2020 related to fire escapes and roof access, and multiple complaints about heating systems, with similar heat/hot water issues reported in December 2019.
A notable period of electrical wiring concerns was recorded between August 2021 and March 2022, with multiple violations served to the owner through the Environmental Control Board, resulting in active penalties totaling $50,000 for failure to comply with Commissioner’s orders. The building underwent extensive rodent control efforts in 2014-2015, with initial rat activity observed followed by multiple bait applications, though subsequent inspections passed. The property's recent inspection records from 2024 and violations suggest a pattern of delayed maintenance response and regulatory compliance, particularly regarding safety equipment and building systems.
