182 Rockaway Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11233
The three-unit, three-story Old Law Tenement at 182 Rockaway Avenue in Bedford-Stuyvesant, owned by Eugene Griffith, has experienced recurring maintenance challenges since 2018. Most notably, there has been a persistent rodent issue, with the most recent inspections in 2023 showing regular bait applications following periods of rat activity in late 2022.
The building has also faced significant maintenance concerns, including multiple tenant complaints between 2018-2019 regarding unsanitary conditions, plumbing issues, and heating problems, many of which were closed without proper access being granted for inspection. The property was subject to several Department of Buildings investigations and violations, particularly in 2019, related to possible illegal conversions and failure to comply with vacate orders. This led to multiple Environmental Control Board violations for failure to certify corrections on immediately hazardous conditions between 2019-2020, though most of these were subsequently dismissed.
More recently, the building has maintained an open violation status related to annual bedbug reporting requirements, with the most recent inspection in 2024 showing non-compliance. Despite these issues, the building did successfully complete rodent control inspections in 2023, demonstrating some responsiveness to ongoing pest management needs. A permit for electrical work was issued in late 2022, suggesting some maintenance activity is occurring, though this is in contrast to the historical pattern of unaddressed violations and complaints.
