356 East 91st Street, Brooklyn, NY 11212

The 2-story, 4-unit residential building at 356 East 91st Street in East Flatbush, owned by Onicka Voglezon, has experienced several significant issues over the past few years. Most notably, in March 2023, the building faced complaints and violations related to unsanitary conditions and mold, though no violations were issued following HPD inspections of this complaint.

More concerning are the multiple violations related to unauthorized modifications, including two Class B violations from March 2023 regarding unlawful cooking spaces and unauthorized plumbing fixtures in the cellar, which were certified as corrected in August 2023. The building's history shows recurring requirements to file annual bedbug reports, with violations issued in 2021, 2022, and 2023, though the most recent bedbug report from June 2024 (covering the period from November 2022 to October 2023) indicates no infestation problems during that time. A significant inspection in April 2023 related to an illegal conversion complaint (filed March 20, 2023) resulted in a violation for occupancy contrary to allowed use, specifically citing unauthorized partitions creating an illegal Class "A" apartment in the cellar, along with an unlawful gas range and kitchen sink.

The building's documented history shows a pattern of compliance issues primarily centered around illegal cellar modifications and unauthorized living spaces, though recent bedbug reporting suggests improved compliance in that regard. The most recent violation - concerning bedbug reporting - appears to have been properly addressed, as subsequent filings indicate no infested units. While many older violations have been closed, particularly those related to the March 2023 mold complaint and the illegal conversion issues, the building's history suggests ongoing challenges with unauthorized modifications and regulatory compliance.
