106 Kings Highway, Brooklyn, NY 11214

106 Kings Highway is a 4-story, 6-unit residential building in Gravesend, constructed in 2013 and currently owned by George Kraff. The property has consistently failed to comply with Housing Maintenance Code requirements regarding annual bedbug reporting, receiving four consecutive violations from 2021 through 2024, all of which remain open.

This ongoing non-compliance is particularly concerning given the potential implications for resident comfort and safety. The building has experienced significant elevator-related issues, with a closed complaint filed in July 2020 regarding a single device without alternate service, which led to an Environmental Control Board violation citing multiple elevator problems including inoperative car lighting, shortened hoist ropes, insufficient ambient temperature control, and other maintenance concerns, resulting in a $1,250 penalty (currently showing a balance of -$1,225). Additional violations remain active regarding the failure to certify corrections on immediately hazardous (Class 1) ECB violations from September 2020, and the failure to file the mandatory Category 1 elevator inspection/test for 2017.

The building's violation history also shows three open DOB violations from 2020 through 2021, though the specific nature of these violations is not detailed in the available records. While a 2010 rodent inspection for the property was passed, this predates the current ownership and most recent building history by over a decade. Given the pattern of open violations and recurring regulatory non-compliance, particularly regarding elevator maintenance and bedbug reporting, the building has shown persistent challenges in meeting basic maintenance and safety requirements as established by NYC housing regulations.
