92 Starr Street is a 6-unit, 3-story Old Law Tenement building located in Bushwick, built in 1931 and currently owned by Mike Samouha. The property has experienced persistent maintenance challenges over recent years, with particularly notable issues in 2024-2025 including multiple complaints about rat activity, with inspections throughout 2024 and early 2025 consistently showing evidence of rodent presence. The building has also faced recurring problems with pigeon waste, with two complaints in 2023 and 2025 indicating unsanitary conditions. A significant heat and hot water complaint for the entire building was filed in December 2024, though inspectors were unable to gain access for inspection. The building's violations include two active DOB violations from June 2023 related to failure to file external low-pressure inspections for 2020 and 2021.
The property has demonstrated some positive improvements, with three consecutive years of bedbug reports (2022-2025) showing zero infested units, indicating successful management of this potential issue. Multiple 311 complaints and DOB inspections have shown the building to be generally responsive to various violations, though access issues for inspectors have been noted on at least two occasions in 2019 and 2024. The building's management has received various warnings and notices from agencies like DOHMH and HPD regarding sanitation and health concerns, including a food establishment complaint in 2018 and indoor sewage odor complaint in 2019, though most issues appear to be promptly addressed once officially documented.
