66 East 95th Street, Brooklyn, NY 11212

The property at 66 East 95th Street in East Flatbush is a 2-story New Law Tenement building containing 4 units, built in 1930 and currently owned by Odessa Paton. The building has several open Housing Maintenance Code (HMC) violations as of July 2025, including pending requirements to submit annual bedbug reports (dating back to inspections in 2023 and 2024), along with multiple safety-related infractions from September 2022 that remain unresolved.

These safety violations include the need to post proper gas leak procedures, repair or replace defective self-closing doors at both the roof bulkhead and first-story vestibule, address encumbrances consisting of household items in public hall areas, and properly display notices regarding smoke detector and carbon monoxide detector requirements, as well as information about the agency's housing information guide. The building's recent history shows some concerning patterns, particularly the cluster of complaints filed in June 2023, all related to the 7R category (which typically involves issues like inadequate heat or hot water), though these were subsequently closed with varying dispositions.

An illegal conversion complaint was filed in August 2022, but the inspector was unable to gain access to verify the claim during the second final attempt in November 2022. Three emergency or non-emergency complaints regarding roof door/hatch and door issues were filed in August 2022, which were closed after inspections in September of the same year. The persistence of open violations related to both bedbug reporting and various building safety requirements suggests ongoing compliance challenges, while the pattern of heating/hot water complaints in mid-2023 indicates potential issues with basic service provision.
