205 Hooper Street, Brooklyn, NY 11211
The three-story, three-unit residential building at 205 Hooper Street in Williamsburg, constructed in 1899 and currently owned by David Spitzer, has experienced a series of maintenance and compliance issues over the past several years, with the most significant cluster of violations occurring between 2022 and 2024. Recent inspections in 2024 identified issues with a broken or defective yard door knob, while previous years saw more substantial concerns including multiple violations related to door maintenance (self-closing doors in basement and Apartment 1), bathroom maintenance issues (broken ceramic tiles and defective toilet flushing apparatus in Apartment 2FL), and safety concerns regarding roof access (missing ladder and scuttle opening).
The building has also faced regulatory scrutiny regarding illegal modifications, with Department of Buildings Environmental Control Board violations in 2022 citing unauthorized construction of an attached structure and related electrical/plumbing work, as well as concerns about an obstructed rear fire escape. Two open violations remain from 2022 related to unauthorized alterations to the rear yard balcony door and self-closing doors in Apartment 2FL.
The building has maintained an active bedbug monitoring program, with all recent reports (2022-2024) showing zero infested units, suggesting effective pest management practices. Historical records indicate a pattern of compliance issues, including several instances of work performed without proper permits in 2018-2022, though most violations from this period have been resolved. The property has consistently filed required bedbug reports since 2020, with no recorded infestations in any dwelling unit during the specified reporting periods.
