385 Grand Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11238
The three-unit, three-story building at 385 Grand Avenue in Clinton Hill, owned by Bliss Broyard and constructed in 1875, has a complex history marked by several significant events. Most notably, in 2019, the building faced serious violations related to unauthorized transient use, including illegal hotel room operations, which resulted in four Environmental Control Board violations. These violations included failures to maintain proper egress systems, install required fire alarm and sprinkler systems, and maintain code compliance for transient use.
Penalties were imposed totaling $3,750, though records indicate these violations were resolved. The building also experienced a recurring issue with bedbug report compliance from 2021 to 2024, receiving violations for not filing annual bedbug reports, though recent filings from 2023-2025 show no confirmed infestations or eradications. Noteworthy is the 2020 permit issuance for work described as "EW," though specific details of the work are not provided in the records.
Most recently, the building's bedbug reporting status has improved, with the 2025 report showing no issues for the 2023-2024 period, following similar clean reports in 2024 and 2023. This pattern suggests the building has effectively addressed the bedbug reporting compliance issues that were recurring between 2021-2024. The most recent inspection in 2024 did not result in any new violations being recorded. The property appears to have stabilized following the 2019 violations, with no additional documented illegal occupancy or safety concerns in recent years, though the previous transient use issues and resulting penalties should be noted as part of the building's history.
