484 East 94th Street, Brooklyn, NY 11212

The 19-unit, 4-story New Law Tenement building at 484 East 94th Street in East Flatbush, owned by Mike Roberts, has experienced several significant maintenance issues over the past few years. Most recently, in May 2025, there were multiple complaints regarding sewage odors that involved the Department of Health and Mental Hygiene.

The building has a documented history of pest control problems, particularly evident in 2022, when multiple complaints were filed regarding pest infestations, resulting in violations, including a July 2022 violation for cockroach infestation specifically in apartment 5D. The property has also faced various maintenance challenges, including water leak issues in June 2022 (violations issued), and multiple housing maintenance code violations related to building infrastructure, such as paint/plaster issues and plumbing problems noted in September 2021. As per recent records, the building has had three confirmed bedbug infestations between November 2022 and October 2023, though these were reportedly eradicated with no re-infestations.

The property currently has three active Department of Buildings violations from 2019 and 2023 regarding failure to file required external low-pressure inspection reports for 2018-2020, and these violations remain unresolved as of the latest inspection. While the building has had some successful rodent inspections in the past (July 2018 and July 2022 both passed), the ongoing issues with pest infestations, water leaks, and the current open violations regarding inspection report filings suggest continued attention required to building maintenance matters. The most recent Health Department actions in May 2025 indicate that concerns about indoor air quality, particularly regarding sewage odors, remain a persistent issue in the building's maintenance history.
