757 Schenck Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11207

The two-story, three-unit building at 757 Schenck Avenue in East New York, owned by Shameem Chowdhury and constructed in 1930, has experienced persistent maintenance challenges, particularly regarding pest control and sanitation. Most notably, from late 2020 through 2021, there were multiple documented instances of pest infestations, including significant problems with mice and roaches in Apartment 2F during early 2021, for which Class C violations were issued requiring abatement. The building has also faced recurring electrical issues, with multiple complaints about lighting problems in early 2021, though not all resulted in violations. Additional concerns during this period included radiator plumbing issues and instances of mold, particularly in early 2021.

As of 2023-2024, the building has several open violations that require attention. These include an active Class A violation regarding the failure to file annual bedbug reports, which has been noted in consecutive inspections from 2021 through 2024. There is also a Class B violation associated with an unaddressed bathroom waste pipe issue in Apartment 2F from April 2021. While some past issues were resolved, such as heating problems and window repairs in late 2020, the property continues to show patterns of maintenance challenges.

Notably, an initial rodent inspection in August 2012 passed, but subsequent years have shown recurring pest issues. It is important to note that not all complaints or violations necessarily correlate with current conditions, as many issues were resolved through standard enforcement processes, though some, particularly regarding bedbug reporting compliance, remain unresolved. The building's documented history shows a pattern of maintenance issues primarily concentrated in 2020-2021, with fewer complaints in subsequent years. However, the persistence of certain open violations as of 2024 indicates ongoing regulatory compliance challenges, particularly regarding pest reporting requirements.
