265 East 92nd Street, Brooklyn, NY 11212

The two-story, four-unit residential building at 265 East 92nd Street in East Flatbush, owned by Joseph Grant, has experienced multiple concerning incidents over the past three years, all suggesting possible unauthorized modifications or use of the property.

Most recently, in August 2023, there was a complaint regarding an illegal conversion, which resulted in an inspection on October 3, 2023; however, no violations were found at that time. Prior to this, there were three other complaints about illegal conversions (November 2022 and May 2022) and one concerning illegal commercial/manufacturing use in a residential zone (June 2022), all during the same general time frame between 2022-2023.

Notably, in each of these earlier complaints, inspectors were unable to gain access to the property despite making two final attempts, which limited their ability to verify the reported issues. While the most recent complaint did result in an inspection with no violations found, the pattern of complaints, particularly regarding illegal conversions and unauthorized use of the property, suggests ongoing concerns about the building's compliance with residential regulations.
