8 Remsen Street, Brooklyn, NY 11201
The six-story, 10-unit New Law Tenement at 8 Remsen Street in Brooklyn Heights, constructed in 1923 and currently owned by Robert Rodgers, has experienced recurring housing maintenance code violations related to bedbug reporting requirements over the past four years. Between 2021 and 2024, the building received four consecutive Class A violations for failing to file the mandatory annual bedbug report with HPD, all of which remain open as of the latest inspection in April 2024.
The building's inspection history shows a mix of rodent-related outcomes, with recent inspections in 2023 and 2016 passing, following an initial rat activity report in 2015. The Department of Buildings has recorded three complaints regarding building stability between 2019 and 2022, though no violations were confirmed in any of these investigations.
A 2022 complaint about building shaking was marked as closed with no violations found, while a 2021 complaint resulted in an inspector's inability to gain access for evaluation. A fence-related complaint from 2019 was also investigated but found to have no violations. While the building's most recent rodent inspection passed in February 2023, the persistent bedbug reporting violations over multiple years warrant attention to the building's compliance with housing maintenance requirements.
