108 Ralph Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11221
The 6-unit, 4-story tenement building at 108 Ralph Avenue in Bedford-Stuyvesant, owned by Willie Wren Sr, has experienced recurring maintenance issues since at least 2018. Most notably, there has been a consistent pattern of water-related problems, with multiple complaints and violations recorded regarding leaks (slow leaks, damp spots) from 2018 through 2023, including a recent plumbing water supply emergency complaint in late 2023 that HPD was unable to inspect.
The building had significant issues in 2022-2023 related to garbage/recycling storage that resulted in violations, and in 2019, tenants experienced heat and hot water problems affecting the entire building, though these were reportedly resolved shortly after inspection. The property has undergone several rodent inspections, with the most recent in 2025 passing, though there were indications of rat activity in 2019 and 2022.
While the building has maintained an active bedbug prevention program with no reported infestations in recent filings (2021-2024), there is an open violation as of June 2023 regarding the failure to file an external low-pressure inspection from 2018, and a 2020 C-class violation regarding a roach infestation in apartment 2B that remains unresolved. Recent rodent inspection results from 2024 and 2025 have shown improvement, passing inspections where previous years had indicated rat activity. The building has also been subject to various interior maintenance issues, including mold, wall damage, and electrical concerns, though many of these historical violations have been resolved through inspection and certification processes.
