192 Scholes Street, Brooklyn, NY 11206

The three-story, four-unit Old Law Tenement building at 192 Scholes Street in Williamsburg, owned by Pedro Lebron and constructed in 1920, has recently experienced some notable maintenance issues. Most significantly, in June 2023, there was a report of heat and hot water problems affecting one or more apartments, though HPD was unable to gain access to conduct an inspection.

The building has also faced consistent regulatory scrutiny regarding bedbug reporting requirements, receiving four consecutive violations between 2021 and 2024 for failure to file the necessary annual bedbug reports, though the most recent 2024 report indicates no units were infested, eradicated, or re-infested during the reporting period. The property has maintained good rodent control, passing inspections in December 2018, June 2019, and December 2019, and there have been no reported rodent issues since then.

While the building's overall violation history shows periodic compliance issues, particularly with bedbug reporting, it's worth noting that the most recent bedbug report from September 2024 shows zero infestations during the 2022-2023 reporting period, suggesting improved compliance with reporting requirements. The heat and hot water issues reported in mid-2023 represent the most recent maintenance concern, though it's unclear if these problems persisted beyond the failed HPD inspection. The building's age and classification as an Old Law Tenement are characteristic of many similar properties in the area, though the recent improvements in bedbug reporting compliance and absence of infestation problems are a positive development.
