457 Clinton Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11238
457 Clinton Avenue is a three-story, 8-unit residential building located in Clinton Hill, constructed in 1870 and currently owned by Sanford Nager. The property has experienced several notable maintenance issues over recent years, with the most recent being a heat/hot water complaint in January 2025 that was investigated but found not to violate housing laws. Between 2021 and 2022, the building faced multiple water-related problems, including two separate heavy flow and damp spot leak complaints, as well as wall paint/plaster issues, all of which were initially classified as emergencies.
Violations were issued in October 2021 regarding repairs needed in apartment 3B, including broken plastered surfaces, roof leaks, and door self-closing mechanisms, though these were later certified as addressed. The building has shown ongoing maintenance challenges related to sanitation and pest control, with multiple rodent-related complaints in 2022 and an unsanitary condition complaint regarding garbage/recycling storage in late 2022. Health department inspections found some issues but also recorded instances of compliance.
Notably, the property has maintained a solid record regarding bedbug infestations, with zero reported cases in recent annual filings from 2021 through 2024. An inspection for illegal hotel rooms in 2024 resulted in no violations being found. While many historical issues appear to have been addressed, several open violations remain on record from previous years, including concerns about smoke detectors, fire egress, and water leakage in apartment 3A from 2018 inspections, suggesting some persistent maintenance challenges within the aging structure.
