703 Rogers Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11226

703 Rogers Avenue is a 5-story, 18-unit Old Law Tenement building located in East Flatbush and owned by Joel Fried, built in 1910. The property has experienced several maintenance issues over the past five years, with the most recent complaints involving unsanitary conditions related to garbage storage in late 2024, though this was determined not to violate housing laws after an HPD inspection.

The building has maintained a consistent record of bedbug management compliance; the most recent bedbug report for the 2023-2024 period showed no infested units. Between 2018 and 2021, the building underwent significant safety and compliance improvements, with violations related to proper notice posting for bedbug reporting, smoke detectors, carbon monoxide requirements, and gas leak procedures noted and subsequently corrected.

Historically, the building has faced some health and safety challenges, including a sewage odor incident in 2022, food worker hygiene issues in 2023, and a rodent sighting in 2020, though all were resolved through appropriate inspections or interventions. Extensive rodent control efforts were documented in 2016, with multiple bait applications and initial reports of rat activity, but more recent inspections in 2017 and 2020 showed compliance and passing results. The property has consistently filed annual bedbug reports showing zero infested units since 2019, and while there have been various maintenance and compliance issues over the years, most have been promptly addressed through inspections and corrective actions.
