117 Rogers Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11216
This four-story, 8-unit New Law Tenement building in Crown Heights, built in 1931 and currently owned by Jean Eric Faroul, has experienced persistent heating and maintenance issues over the past few years. The most pressing concern has been the recurring heat and hot water problems, with seven such complaints registered in late 2023 alone (October through December), most of which resulted in inspectors being unable to gain access to units for verification.
While an inspection on November 1, 2023 found no violations, the building's heating system has remained a point of contention, with emergency complaints continuing into December 2023. The property has also faced several safety and maintenance challenges, including violations documented in December 2023 related to fire escape accessibility, self-closing doors, and various notice requirements. A rodent problem has been persistent, with multiple inspections throughout 2022-2025 showing "Rat Activity," though the most recent inspections in 2024-2025 have consistently shown this issue.
The building's condition has required multiple agency interventions, including HPD and DOHMH inspections, with varying levels of access success. While recent inspection data from 2024-2025 shows some improvements in compliance, particularly regarding bedbug reporting and certain maintenance issues, the recurring nature of heating problems and rodent activity suggests ongoing challenges with building systems and pest control. The most recent rodent inspections as of 2025 show continued activity, though previous inspections in 2023-2024 had shown "Passed" results, indicating temporary resolution of some issues.
