1178 Rogers Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11226

The three-unit building at 1178 Rogers Avenue in Flatbush, Brooklyn, owned by Steven Singh, has experienced significant maintenance issues over the past few years, with the most recent cluster of complaints occurring in October 2023 addressing multiple concerns including unsanitary conditions related to pests and mold, paint/plaster issues affecting ceilings, appliance problems, and window maintenance needs. This follows a pattern established in September 2022 when similar complaints were documented, though those resulted in violations being issued. More broadly, the property has unresolved Class A violations from March and April 2023-2024 requiring the owner to file annual bedbug reports, and a November 2022 inspection revealed multiple issues in Apartment 2F including defective electrical outlets, lighting fixtures, smoke and carbon monoxide detectors, as well as problems with plaster surfaces and pest infestations.

The building's recent history shows a recurrence of unsanitary conditions, particularly regarding pests, which have been documented in complaints across both 2022 and 2023. While recent inspections in October 2023 found no violations for the most recent complaints, they were still categorized as problematic conditions. Notably, there is an ongoing Department of Buildings complaint from October 2023 regarding an illegal conversion, though the inspector was unable to gain access during the inspection attempt in October 2024.

The property, a New Law Tenement built in 1920, has maintained its original 3-story structure and contains 3 residential units, with the majority of documented issues particularly affecting the 2F apartment. The building's documented issues span multiple categories including electrical problems (e.g., no lighting), various surface maintenance needs (paint/plaster), and some concerns related to appliance functionality. While many recent complaints have been resolved without violations being issued, the pattern of recurring issues suggests ongoing maintenance challenges that have persisted over multiple years.
