314 Clinton Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11205

314 Clinton Avenue is a 10-unit, 4-story residential building located in Clinton Hill, Brooklyn, and built in 1885. The property, currently owned by Marc Barron, has experienced recurring heat and hot water system issues throughout 2025, with multiple emergency complaints filed in May and April of that year, though some were identified as duplicates of other complaints. A concerning pattern of moisture-related problems has emerged, including multiple mold complaints in 2024 and 2025, with violations issued and requiring correction.

Apartment 2A has documented violations from October 2024 related to various maintenance issues including mold, water leaks, and damaged plaster surfaces in the bathroom and foyer, though these were certified as corrected by early 2025. The building has also faced rodent issues, with inspections in March and April 2025 indicating rat activity, though past inspections from 2017 and 2016 had shown no such problems. Additional concerns were raised about illegal hotel rooms in 2023, though inspectors were unable to gain access during the investigation.

The property's maintenance history reveals ongoing challenges with building systems and upkeep. In March 2025, a boiler-related complaint resulted in an "Oath Violation Served" status. While there have been multiple unsanitary condition complaints (including regarding pests and mold) between 2024 and 2025, no bedbug infestations have been reported in the past seven years, according to official filings. The building's documented violations suggest a pattern of moisture and maintenance issues, particularly affecting Apartment 2A, though many violations have been subsequently closed following repairs.
