242 East 94th Street, Brooklyn, NY 11212

The 2-story, 4-unit building at 242 East 94th Street in East Flatbush, owned by Brian James, was constructed in 1930 as a New Law Tenement.

The property has experienced several significant maintenance issues over the past several years, most notably during November 2018 when emergency complaints were filed regarding a lack of heat and hot water, as well as unsanitary mold conditions, though inspectors were unable to gain access to verify these problems. More recently, the building has faced ongoing compliance issues related to bedbug reporting requirements, with four consecutive violations recorded between 2021 and 2024, all classified as Class A violations under the Housing Maintenance Code.

These violations, which remain open as of April 2024, specifically relate to the owner's failure to file the mandatory annual bedbug report as required by HPD regulations. The persistent nature of these bedbug reporting violations over multiple years suggests ongoing compliance challenges with building management's administrative responsibilities, though it should be noted that there are currently no active complaints on record about heating or sanitation issues since the 2018 incidents.
