347 Hancock Street, Brooklyn, NY 11216
The three-story, six-unit building at 347 Hancock Street in Bedford-Stuyvesant, owned by Chanie Spitzer and built in 1900, has experienced several concerning maintenance issues in recent years. Most notably, there have been recurring heating problems, with the most recent complaint about inadequate heat being filed in November 2024 and requiring Department of Health inspection.
The building has maintained an active rodent control program, with multiple rat sightings reported between 2022 and 2024, though recent inspections in 2024 have shown passing results. Significant violations remain open regarding the failure to file annual bedbug reports from 2019 to 2024, and there are multiple unresolved issues related to external low-pressure inspections from 2018 through 2023. The building has previously faced various maintenance challenges, including door/window issues (resolved in 2023) and unsanitary conditions related to garbage storage (2023).
A cluster of violations from 2019 remains particularly relevant, including issues with mold, fire retardant materials, and plumbing concerns in the community bathroom on the third story, as well as problems with the doors in Apartment 3. While the building has regularly undergone rodent inspections, with most results showing compliance, there have been repeated complaints about rodent conditions and sightings between 2022 and 2023. The property has passed several health inspections, including those related to rodent complaints, though some opened violations and unresolved maintenance issues remain concerning.
