446 Berriman Street, Brooklyn, NY 11208

The 3-story, 9-unit New Law Tenement building at 446 Berriman Street in East New York, owned by Greg Caffrey, has experienced several maintenance issues in recent years, with the most significant cluster of problems occurring in May 2025. During this period, multiple complaints were filed and violations issued regarding various issues including water leaks (Damp Spot), electrical problems (Lighting), and flooring concerns. The building has documented persistent plumbing problems, particularly affecting Unit 3B, which has received multiple violations since October 2024 regarding water leaks in ceilings and issues with sink connections in both the kitchen and bathroom, though some of these violations were certified as corrected by December 2024.

The property has also faced challenges with building infrastructure, including problems with doors and windows that have resulted in violations, though inspections found some of these issues did not violate housing laws. The building's recent history shows attention to pest control, with no bedbug infestations reported in the past three years. Rodent inspections have yielded mixed results, with a failure in August 2024 and a pass in November 2024.

Several emergency complaints were filed and resolved regarding doors, plumbing fixtures, and a water leak heavy flow incident in October 2024. The property has maintained compliance with reporting requirements, filing bedbug reports showing zero infested units. The building's maintenance record shows regular inspections and responses to complaints, though some issues remain open or have recent violations requiring attention. Notably, a Department of Buildings complaint regarding defective/exposed electrical wiring from 2021 was found to have no violations during inspection.
