792 Clarkson Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11203

792 Clarkson Avenue is a 2-story, 2-family house located in East Flatbush, built in 1940 and currently owned by Afi Anor. The property has experienced significant recurring issues with heat and hot water, with five documented complaints between April and December 2024, the most recent being an open complaint from December 2024 regarding inadequate heat/hot water conditions.

The first floor apartment (1STFLO) has multiple open violations as of 2024, including issues with hot water temperatures exceeding 130 degrees, water leaks, and problems with plastered surfaces and paint. The building has also experienced plumbing issues across multiple units, pest problems (including a 2023 violation for roach infestation), and electrical concerns such as a defective bathroom light fixture and inadequate electrical service. Historically, there was a significant enforcement action in 2019 regarding an illegal cellar apartment conversion, resulting in violations for unauthorized occupancy and the presence of an illegal kitchen with appliances.

While the Department of Buildings and Environmental Control Board records show these violations were resolved with no penalties, they indicate previous unauthorized modifications to the property. Recent inspections and complaints suggest ongoing maintenance challenges, particularly concerning building systems like heating, plumbing, and sanitation. The property has also experienced multiple instances in 2024 where Housing Preservation and Development (HPD) was unable to gain access to units for inspection, which may indicate access-related communication issues between tenants and management.
