106 7th Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11215

The four-story, six-unit old law tenement building at 106 7th Avenue in Park Slope, owned by Arnold Rosenshein and constructed in 1921, is currently facing significant heating system issues. In January 2025, multiple complaints regarding lack of heat/hot water in the entire building were filed with both 311 and HPD, though inspectors were reportedly unable to gain access to the apartments to verify the conditions.

The building also has two active ECB violations from May 2018, each carrying a $1,250 penalty, related to failure to comply with previous summonses from August 2017 regarding housing maintenance code requirements, though the penalty balances are listed as $0. On a more positive note, the property has maintained a clean record concerning pest infestations, with no reported cases of bedbugs over the past eight years (2018-2025).

Annual bedbug reports submitted to the city consistently indicate zero infested dwelling units, zero units requiring eradication, and zero re-infestations, suggesting effective management of this particular issue. While the absence of minor repairs or other complaints in the recent history of the building might generally be viewed positively, the recurring heating system issues and unresolved violations from 2018 stand out as significant concerns. The most recent heating complaint has been officially closed due to lack of access for inspection, though residents are encouraged to refile if the issue persists.
