1041 Rogers Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11226

The 12-unit, 3-story tenement building at 1041 Rogers Avenue in East Flatbush, owned by Mark Weinberger and built in 1910, has experienced recurring heat and hot water issues over the past several years, with the most recent complaints in October 2024 and December 2023. Multiple complaints have been filed regarding lack of heat or hot water in the entire building, though HPD was often unable to gain access to verify the conditions.

The building has also faced pest-related challenges, with complaints about unsanitary conditions due to pests in 2022, though these were eventually resolved without violations being issued. Recent maintenance issues include an open violation from October 2023 regarding a broken window counterbalance in apartment 3R, and several historical concerns from 2022 that were addressed, including problems with water leaks (documented in February and August 2022), paint/plaster issues, and a refrigerator problem. The building's history shows occasional bedbug infestations, with the most recent reports from 2023-2024 indicating zero infested units, though there were documented infestations in 2022 and prior years.

Earlier violations included concerns about fire escape maintenance, with citations for rust and egress obstruction, as well as various maintenance issues in common areas like the public hall and roof bulkhead. A rodent inspection in 2014 showed compliance, with no violations. The building has had multiple 311 service requests, primarily focused on heat/hot water and pest issues, with most being closed after inspection, though not all resulted in violations being issued.
