1246 Blake Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11208
The 2-story, 3-unit residential building at 1246 Blake Avenue in East New York, owned by Mohammed Naser and constructed in 1920, has experienced multiple maintenance and safety issues in recent years. Most significantly, from February to May 2024, there were several unaddressed complaints regarding unsanitary conditions (pest infestations), plumbing problems (sink, toilet, bathtub/shower, and water supply issues), and flooring concerns, with the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD) unable to gain access for inspections in many instances. The building currently has two open Housing Maintenance Code violations from 2023 and 2024 related to failing to file annual bedbug reports, though historical records show previous bedbug and rodent issues were addressed.
Security and safety concerns have been documented, including an emergency safety inspection of the fire escape in 2024 which resulted in no violations. The property has a notable history of plumbing and maintenance challenges, with multiple emergency complaints in 2024 alone. Previous violations from 2019-2020 indicated problems with smoke detectors, carbon monoxide detectors, and pest infestations in Apartment 1, along with defective plaster and paint issues in public areas.
The building has been subject to four separate illegal conversion complaints in 2023-2024, though inspections yielded no access for verification. Environmental Control Board violations from 2018 remain active, with penalties totaling $10,000 related to failure to comply with commission orders regarding unpermitted work and business activities, though historical records indicate some violations were resolved. The property's mixed history of compliance with rodent inspections (2012 and 2016 both passed) and bedbug reporting (historically documented infestations and successful eradications) suggests ongoing maintenance challenges that require monitoring.
