208 Evergreen Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11221
208 Evergreen Avenue is an 8-unit, 4-story old law tenement building constructed in 1931 and currently owned by Tom Rosenberg. The property has demonstrated recurring issues with unsanitary conditions, particularly regarding pests and sewage, with the most recent pest-related complaint filed in February 2024 and similar sewage issues reported in 2018. An open violation from August 2024 requires the scraping and repainting of rusted balconies and fire escape components.
The building has experienced ongoing rodent-related challenges, with multiple inspections in 2024 showing rat activity, though recent inspections in 2025 have passed. A significant violation related to unauthorized construction work in the cellar was issued in November 2022 for installing water and waste lines for a bathroom and new staircase, with a penalty of $1,250, which remains active. The property has undergone several maintenance inspections and repairs, with notable issues addressed in October 2018 including plaster repairs, door modifications, and various safety violations that were subsequently corrected.
While there have been multiple rodent activity reports between 2022 and 2024, recent inspections in 2025 have shown improvement in pest control compliance. The building has maintained a consistent record of submitting bedbug reports, showing zero infestation cases for the past several reporting periods from 2020 to 2024. Other notable violations include safety-related issues such as inadequate fire egress in 2008, which has since been certified as corrected, and various administrative compliance matters from 2018 regarding emergency notices and housing guides.
