293 Hooper Street, Brooklyn, NY 11211
293 Hooper Street is a 6-story, 35-unit New Law tenement building constructed in 1915 in Williamsburg and currently owned by Charlie Lezer. The building has experienced recurring heating system issues, with multiple complaints about inadequate heat and hot water reported between October 2024 and March 2025, though inspections revealed these problems were typically resolved before verification. More recently, in April 2025, there were five complaints about flooring conditions, with the inspections revealing no violations of housing laws.
The building has faced various maintenance challenges over the past few years, including a rodent infestation (specifically mice and roaches) documented in April 2023 in Apartment 5, and violations related to fire escape obstruction and lighting issues in 2023-2024. Notably, all recent bedbug reports from 2019 to 2024 show zero infested units, indicating effective pest management. The property has a history of accumulating violations requiring correction, including an instance in late 2024-2025 regarding refuse accumulation in the west yard, though most violations have been resolved through proper certification.
There were concerns about air conditioning units obstructing fire escapes in 2022-2024, and various fire safety-related issues were documented and subsequently addressed. The building's management has generally responded to violations and complaints, as evidenced by the closure of most service requests and the passing of recent rodent inspections (2018-2023 showed varied results, including "Passed" inspections). An active complaint from 2024 regarding an adult establishment was assigned to the Mayor's Office of Special Enforcement.
