140 Tapscott Street, Brooklyn, NY 11212
140 Tapscott Street is a 2-story, 4-unit residential building in Brownsville, owned by Erica Johnson and constructed in 1930 as a New Law Tenement.
The property has experienced several significant maintenance issues over the past few years, most notably an emergency water leak with heavy flow reported in August 2022, which was investigated by HPD but resulted in no violations. There are currently two open Housing Maintenance Code violations from 2023 and 2024 related to the failure to file annual bedbug reports, though the building's documented bedbug history shows no infestations during the 2019-2020 reporting period, with 0 infested, 0 eradicated, and 0 re-infested units.
The property has a concerning history of rodent activity, with rat activity reported in 2017 and 2018, but subsequent compliance inspections in 2017 and 2018 showed no violations. A work permit for unspecified emergency work was issued in October 2021, though the specific nature of this work is not detailed in the available records.
