Built in 1929, this 6-story New Law Tenement in Jamaica contains 40 units and is currently owned by Jairaj Sobhraj. The building has experienced recurring heat and hot water issues, with the most recent complaint in February 2025, though inspections found no violations. A significant cluster of problems emerged in June 2024, including violations related to pests, mold, slow water leaks, floor issues, and multiple appliance problems (refrigerator and electric/gas range).
These violations were formally documented and required remediation. Apartment 2A underwent a comprehensive inspection in July 2024, revealing multiple issues including pest infestations (both roaches and mice), electrical problems, and various maintenance concerns which were subsequently addressed and certified as corrected between August and September 2024. The building has also faced challenges with compliance inspections, with multiple missed appointments for Local Law 188/17 Compliance Inspections in 2024, showing that inspectors were unable to gain access.
Historical records show regular monitoring and mitigation efforts for pests, particularly in 2015 when there were inspections noting rat activity and bait applications. The property has demonstrated consistent compliance with bedbug reporting requirements from 2019 onward, showing no reported infestations. Previously, the building received violations related to energy benchmarking and reporting requirements in 2018-2022, though these were ultimately dismissed following proper documentation submission.
