117 Hendrix Street, Brooklyn, NY 11207

117 Hendrix Street is a two-family house located in Cypress Hills, built in 1910 and currently owned by Bhagwantie Sookoo. The building has experienced recurring heat and hot water issues over several years, with significant clusters of complaints in 2021-2022.

During this period, there were at least eight separate incidents involving heat and hot water problems, affecting both individual apartments and the entire building, with multiple complaints occurring within short timeframes (e.g., three complaints in November 2021 alone). While most complaints were ultimately resolved, some inspections could not be completed due to lack of access, and there was one incident in March 2021 where a tenant reported that heat and hot water had been restored. The building also had a plumbing-related water supply issue in December 2018, which was closed administratively.

More recently, there have been no reported heat or hot water issues, and as of January 2025 filings, there are no bedbug infestations recorded for the 2023-2024 period, with all units showing as non-infested, eradicated, or without re-infestation cases. The most recent rodent inspection in May 2012 showed a passed result. While the building has experienced notable heating system challenges in the past, the most recent inspection and pest control records suggest improved conditions, though it's worth noting that the bedbug and rodent inspection data is somewhat dated compared to the previous heat and hot water complaint history which spanned from 2018 through early 2022.
