198 Roebling Street, Brooklyn, NY 11211

198 Roebling Street is a 5-story, 10-unit residential building in Williamsburg, currently owned by Diane Roman. The property has experienced several notable incidents and compliance matters over recent years, with the most significant cluster of issues occurring in 2020-2021.

During this period, there were multiple Department of Buildings (DOB) complaints regarding occupancy violations and safety concerns at the roof level, including unauthorized furniture usage that posed potential hazards, as well as at least one instance of site conditions endangering workers. The building also faced compliance issues related to the filing of annual bedbug reports, receiving violations in 2021, 2022, 2023, and 2024 for failing to submit these mandatory documents, though the subsequent filings consistently showed zero infested units. In terms of building maintenance and inspections, the property has generally maintained good standing.

Both rodent inspections in 2019 and 2021 passed, and while there were some Environmental Control Board (ECB) violations in 2020 regarding occupancy and maintenance conditions at the roof level, these were resolved with no penalties remaining. The building was inspected multiple times between 2020 and 2024, with recent bedbug reporting from 2024 showing no current infestations or eradication efforts required. The most recent Housing Maintenance Code (HMC) violation related to unfiled bedbug reports was recorded in April 2024, though given the subsequent filings showing no infestations, it appears to be more of an administrative matter than a health concern.
