466 Nostrand Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11216

The 4-story, 8-unit residential building at 466 Nostrand Avenue in Bedford-Stuyvesant, owned by Stanley Celius and built in 1910, has experienced several notable issues in recent years, particularly in 2024-2025. Most concerning is a recent heat-related complaint in December 2024 that was investigated by the Department of Health and Mental Hygiene, and a pattern of maintenance issues in Apartment 2B that emerged in August 2024, including violations related to smoke detector and carbon monoxide detector functionality, window hardware, water leaks, and ceiling conditions.

The building has also experienced pest-related issues, with multiple complaints about unsanitary conditions between 2024 and 2025, though not all were able to be inspected due to access issues. While the property has generally maintained compliance with rodent inspections, passing all but one in recent years (November 2023 showing rat activity), it has experienced intermittent issues with infrastructure and systems, as evidenced by multiple housing maintenance code complaints and the presence of open violations. Historical data shows relatively low infestation rates of bedbugs, with only one documented case in 2019, and subsequent years showing no reported infestations.

The building's maintenance history includes various repair requests spanning electrical, plumbing, and structural issues, with multiple work permits issued between 2019 and 2021 for various maintenance and repair work. Of particular note is an open violation from August 2024 regarding ceiling painting and an April 2023 violation concerning mold conditions in the bathroom of Apartment 2B. The property has an active record of maintenance requests, with 311 service requests and Housing Maintenance Code complaints continuing into 2025, indicating ongoing attention required to maintain building systems and address resident concerns.
