183 Clifton Place, Brooklyn, NY 11216
183 Clifton Place is a three-story, three-unit old law tenement building located in Bedford-Stuyvesant, Brooklyn, built in 1899 and currently owned by Osaretin Ighile. The building has experienced several significant maintenance and safety issues over the past few years.
Most notably, there are multiple open violations regarding fire safety equipment in Apartment 2, including non-functioning smoke and carbon monoxide detectors, along with problems related to lighting, water leaks, and mold in the bathroom. The property has also faced serious concerns about illegal modifications, with active Department of Buildings Environmental Control Board violations from June 2022 regarding unpermitted plumbing work and unauthorized use of the cellar space, though these were initially identified as illegal conversions dating back to at least 2019-2021. The building's recent history includes a cluster of emergency repairs needed in May-June 2022 affecting electrical systems, safety features, and sanitary conditions, with violations issued for plumbing and ceiling issues during this period.
More recent inspections in 2023-2024 show the owner has not completed the necessary building-wide annual bedbug reports required by the Housing Maintenance Code. The property has consistently passed rodent inspections since 2024, though there were instances of rat activity detected in 2023-2024, and a building vibration complaint was filed and investigated in August 2023. While some safety-related complaints from 2022 were addressed with inspections showing no violations, the persistence of certain open violations and the frequency of past complaints raise ongoing concerns about maintenance and compliance with housing regulations.
