1422 St Marks Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11233

1422 St. Marks Avenue is a three-story, three-unit residential building located in Crown Heights, Brooklyn, owned by Mikhail Zavolunov and constructed in 1920. Recent inspections in July 2023 revealed several maintenance issues requiring attention, including a roof leak in the third-story public hall, fire retardant plaster damage in the third-story hall, and problems with smoke and carbon monoxide detectors in Apartment 1.

The building has a documented history of safety concerns from late 2018 to early 2019, when multiple violations were issued regarding window guards, smoke detectors, and carbon monoxide detection systems, although some related inspections found no violations. More significant concerns arose in 2019 when the property faced illegal occupancy allegations, with two ECB violations (still active as of 2025) related to unauthorized Class A apartment conversion in the basement, with penalties totaling $12,500. The building's maintenance history shows various issues requiring resolution, including a recent violation for defective self-closing doors to the cellar.

Previous Code Violations included high water temperature complaints (145°F) in two apartments and a cockroach infestation in Apartment 2, all of which have been addressed. Of note is the building's recent bedbug reporting history, which shows no infestations reported in the past five years, with the property maintaining a clean record from 2020 through 2025. An open complaint regarding construction lead dust from 2021 remains in progress as of the most recent data, though this situation may have changed since the data cutoff.
