45 Rockaway Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11233
The three-story, two-family house at 45 Rockaway Avenue in Bedford-Stuyvesant, owned by Xin Liang, has experienced several concerning maintenance issues over recent years, particularly during 2020-2024. Most significantly, there have been multiple reports of rodent problems, including a 2021 violation for conditions attracting rodents (DOHMH), and at least two rat sightings between 2020-2021. The property has also faced substantial plumbing issues, with emergency bathtub/shower complaints in July 2024 and earlier plumbing problems in 2021 that HPD was unable to inspect.
Other notable concerns include safety violations such as smoke detector issues in July 2024, and recurring problems with appliances including refrigerators, which were reported in both July 2024 and July 2024. The building has a documented history of various structural and maintenance issues, ranging from door and window problems (including violations for window frames in April 2021) to unsanitary conditions involving mold. In 2022, there was a power outage and radiator plumbing issue that required attention.
Two food establishment complaints regarding rodents/insects/garbage were filed in 2020, suggesting possible concerns about building cleanliness or property maintenance. The building's records also show a 2019 Department of Buildings complaint regarding an illegal occupancy situation, though inspectors were unable to access the property during their final attempt. Additionally, there was a violation in 2019 related to an unfiled annual boiler inspection report, though this was dismissed in 2022.
