400 Rugby Road, Brooklyn, NY 11226
The 67-unit, 6-story building at 400 Rugby Road in Flatbush, owned by Erik Rodie and constructed in 1959, has experienced significant maintenance challenges in recent years. Most concerning are ongoing rodent issues, with multiple complaints and inspections in 2025 showing persistent rat activity, including violations noted in May 2025 and June 2025. The building has also faced various sanitation problems, including issues with garbage/recycling storage demonstrated through multiple complaints and violations throughout 2025.
Other significant maintenance issues have included heat and hot water problems in May 2025, and multiple concerns about self-closing doors across various floors (notably affecting apartments 1E, 2H, 3D, 3G, 4-6 stories) which were documented as violations in December 2024 but were subsequently closed. Recent housing maintenance code violations from June 2025 indicate ongoing issues with pests and sanitation, while emergency complaints from that period involved door and electrical concerns. The building's history includes several elevator-related complaints, with documented service interruptions and inspections in 2022-2024, though inspections generally found no violations at the time of inspection.
The property has maintained an active record of compliance with bedbug reporting requirements from 2020-2025, with no reported infestations. A notable compliance issue was resolved regarding the in-car emergency communication system in 2022, and the building has faced previous challenges with energy benchmarking requirements in 2020. More recently, the property underwent rodent inspections in 2025, with results indicating ongoing rat activity despite some previous inspections passing requirements in late 2024. The building has also had various other maintenance complaints and inspections throughout 2023-2025, covering areas such as plumbing, lighting, and general sanitation concerns, with some inspections showing violations while others found no housing law infractions.
