162 Cooper Street, Brooklyn, NY 11207
162 Cooper Street is a 3-story, 6-unit residential building constructed in 1906 in the Bushwick neighborhood, currently owned by Marie Therese Jean-charles. The property has experienced recurring maintenance issues, with the most significant concerns centering around heat/hot water systems and rodent infestations. In March 2023, the building faced multiple emergency heat/hot water violations affecting the entire building and specifically impacting Apartment 3, along with additional violations related to hot water access in Apartment 3R, public hall ceiling issues, and a defective roof section.
The building has notable rodent control challenges, with multiple inspections and activity reports between 2018 and 2025 showing consistent rat activity, though the most recent inspection from May 2025 passed. There are several open violations related to building maintenance requirements, including an active violation from 2024 regarding the failure to file the 2023 external low-pressure inspection, and previous violations for 2020-2022 that have not been resolved. The property has also been cited for not filing its annual bedbug report as required in 2021, 2022, and 2024, though these violations now appear to be open status rather than resolved.
The building's recent history shows a pattern of ongoing maintenance and compliance issues, particularly regarding basic systems like heat and water, as well as pest control. While there have been some compliance inspections resulting in "Passed" status, the recurrence of similar violations and the presence of active violations through 2024 suggests persistent maintenance challenges. The property has undergone several rodent control treatments and inspections, with varying results, though the most recent inspections show slight improvements in rodent activity management. The building's age and classification as a "New Law Tenement" indicate it falls under specific regulatory requirements that appear to be only partially met based on the available violation history.
