112 Lee Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11211

112 Lee Avenue is a four-story, eight-unit Old Law Tenement building constructed in 1900 and currently owned by Rachel Friedman. The property has multiple ongoing code violations that merit attention, particularly regarding pest management and safety compliance.

Most notably, there is an active Department of Health and Mental Hygiene (DOHMH) complaint from June 2025 regarding rodent issues, with follow-up inspections planned due to confirmed violations. The building has consistently failed to file the required annual bedbug reports between 2021 and 2024, resulting in multiple open Class A Housing Maintenance Code violations. Additionally, there are several open safety-related violations from February 2020, including failure to post required signage regarding building registration number, gas leak procedures, and inspection certificates in common areas, though one Class B violation concerning fire egress and window safety from 2019 has been closed.

Recent inspections (most recently in July 2025) have confirmed ongoing rodent activity, indicating persistent pest management challenges. The historical record shows a pattern of non-compliance with basic safety and maintenance requirements, particularly concerning bedbug reporting and general building safety signage. While the building has undergone various inspections and received numerous violations, many of these issues remain unresolved as of mid-2025, suggesting ongoing challenges with property management and code compliance.
