1147 Rogers Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11226

The three-story, four-unit tenement building at 1147 Rogers Avenue in East Flatbush, owned by Harold Hamilton, has experienced several maintenance issues and violations over the past few years. Between 2020-2021, the building faced multiple problems including heating and hot water issues, appliance malfunctions (electric/gas ranges), and intercom system failures, particularly affecting the second-floor unit (2F), which had additional violations for floor tiles, window frames, and pest infestation that were all subsequently addressed.

Noteworthy safety violations were recorded in 2020, including a defective fire escape ladder, structural stability complaints with shaking/vibration reports in July and August 2020 (though no violations were found), and issues with posting required gas leak procedures and carbon monoxide detector information in common areas. The building's most recent history appears more stable, with no bedbug infestations reported in the past five years and no significant violations since 2021.

The property underwent some form of permitted work in January 2020, with two permits issued under job number 320758131. The Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD) conducted inspections in response to various tenant complaints, with most issues being resolved through proper repairs or by addressing violations, though there were instances where inspectors could not gain access to units for verification. The building's maintenance record from 2020-2021 indicates a period of concentrated repairs and violations, primarily affecting the intercom system, heating, and various appliances, though these issues appear to have been resolved over time.
