155 Rockaway Parkway, Brooklyn, NY 11212

The 6-unit, 3-story tenement building at 155 Rockaway Parkway in Brownsville, owned by Michael Weinreb, has experienced a series of concerning issues over the past year. Most recently, in late December 2024, there were complaints about flooring problems that resulted in violations from HPD.

The building has faced multiple heating issues, with emergency complaints about heat and hot water in both the entire building and individual apartments in December 2024. The property has documented plumbing and water-related challenges, including a heavy flow water leak reported in November 2024, along with electrical wiring concerns that were classified as emergencies. The building's maintenance history shows persistent problems requiring attention, including a complete lack of bedbug eradication efforts from November 2022 through October 2023, with all 6 units reporting infestations.

There are also multiple active violations regarding unfiled external low-pressure inspections from 2018 through 2023, indicating a pattern of neglect in maintaining required safety documentation. Various other issues have been reported and inspected by HPD, including problems with the bell/buzzer/intercom system, flooring conditions, and appliance-related concerns, though many of these complaints were found not to violate housing laws. While some issues have been addressed and resolved, such as certain heating problems in December 2024, the building continues to face multiple active violations and maintenance challenges that impact resident comfort and safety.
