652 Rogers Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11226

The three-story, five-unit tenement building at 652 Rogers Avenue in Prospect-Lefferts Gardens, built in 1931 and owned by Matt Bader, has had several significant events on record over the past decade. The building experienced multiple maintenance issues in October 2018, with complaints about wall conditions and unsanitary conditions related to pests and garbage/recycling storage; while some of these complaints were investigated with no violations found, several inspections could not be completed due to lack of access.

Multiple violations were documented in August 2018, including issues with window guards in public areas, fire retardant materials in the ceiling and walls, and requirements for proper notices regarding carbon monoxide detectors and bedbug reporting. The building has maintained a consistent record of bedbug reporting compliance from 2020 through 2024, with no reported infestations in any unit during this period.

More recent developments include a 2023 violation for failure to file the 2018 external low pressure inspection, which remains active as of the current date. The Department of Buildings issued several permits in early 2019 for work classified as PL (Plumbing) and EW (Early Work), with an associated job number of 321914531. While the building has had its share of maintenance issues over the years, the regular bedbug reporting with consistent zero infestation counts suggests effective pest management, and most historical violations from 2018 have been closed, indicating appropriate follow-up by building management.
