62 Clermont Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11205

The 6-story, 25-unit residential building at 62 Clermont Avenue in Fort Greene, constructed in 2005 and currently owned by Michael Roth, has experienced several notable maintenance and compliance issues over the past few years. Most recently, in March 2024, the building received a Class 1 violation related to elevator maintenance, including repairs needed for the in-car emergency phone, maintenance log book updates, and contact information requirements, resulting in a $1,250 penalty.

The building's history shows multiple concerning patterns in 2019, including six separate complaints related to illegal conversions, certificate of occupancy issues, and egress problems, though most were closed without substantiation or access denial during inspections. The property has maintained consistent compliance with bedbug reporting requirements from 2020 to 2024, with no reported infestations or eradication cases in any unit across multiple annual filings. Rodent inspections conducted in 2010, 2019, and most recently in August 2023 were all passed, indicating effective pest management.

A rat sighting complaint was recorded and resolved in September 2019, though no specific resolution details were provided. The building's elevator system remains a significant focus of attention, with multiple complaints and violations, including a 2024 ECB violation and a 2022 complaint about single device use with no alternate service. While many historical complaints have been resolved or dismissed, the building has shown consistent adherence to bedbug reporting regulations and passed all rodent inspections, suggesting effective ongoing maintenance in these areas.
