1092 Rutland Road, Brooklyn, NY 11212

The two-family house at 1092 Rutland Road in Brownsville, owned by Keung Cheng, has a documented history spanning several years. Built in 1928, this two-story residence has experienced intermittent issues with mobile food vendors, with three similar complaints recorded between 2022 and 2024, all of which were handled by the NYC Health Department.

These complaints, all closed as of January 2025, were related to mobile food vendor permit/license matters, with the resolution instructions directing interested parties to contact the Health Department for inspection report details. Of greater concern was an emergency heating and hot water situation in December 2020 that affected the entire building.

Although filed as an emergency complaint with the Department of Housing Preservation and Development on December 22 and closed shortly thereafter on December 26, the HPD was unable to gain access to the building for inspection purposes, and the resolution notice indicated that if the problem persisted, new complaints should be filed. This heat and hot water issue, categorized as building-wide, is particularly noteworthy given its potential impact on resident comfort and safety. Since that time, there have been no further housing maintenance code complaints on record related to the building's systems or structural conditions.
