283 Classon Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11205
283 Classon Avenue is a 12-unit, 4-story old law tenement building constructed in 1915 in the Bedford-Stuyvesant neighborhood, currently owned by Block 1924 Classon Holding Corp. The building has experienced recurring maintenance issues over the past several years, with the most recent concerns emerging in 2024-2025 including plumbing problems with the bathtub/shower (closed May 2025), window frame issues (violations issued February 2024), and heating/hot water problems (violations issued February 2024).
Notable past incidents include a heavy water leak and mold issue in April 2023, and a similar heating/hot water problem in November 2021, both of which were corrected upon inspection. The building has maintained a consistent record of rodent activity, with the most recent inspections in 2025 and 2024 showing rat activity, following multiple baiting interventions between 2019-2022.
An annual bedbug report filed in 2024 confirmed no infestations during the previous year, maintaining a pattern of zero infested units over the past several years. Current open violations from February 2024 involve a window counterbalance issue affecting multiple windows in apartment 1B, while a category B violation was issued for window repairs needed in the same unit. The building's maintenance history shows a pattern of addressing emergency complaints promptly, though recurring issues suggest some systemic challenges with building systems and maintenance response.
