5316 Clarendon Road, Brooklyn, NY 11203

The three-unit, two-story residential building at 5316 Clarendon Road in East Flatbush, owned by Justin Rawlins, has experienced several significant events since its construction in 1955. In October 2022, the Department of Buildings received complaints regarding unauthorized work in the occupied multiple dwelling, specifically concerning work without a permit and an illegal conversion attempt.

An inspection on October 12, 2022, confirmed that garage modifications had been completed without proper permits, leading to a violation being served, though no penalties were imposed. More recently, in February 2022, the building received a Housing Maintenance Code violation related to the failure to file an annual bedbug report, though this violation was subsequently closed.

The property's bedbug reporting history, spanning from late 2019 through the most recent report in December 2024, shows a consistently clean record with zero reported infestations in any of the units during the specified reporting periods. All five annual bedbug reports have confirmed "0" for infested dwelling unit counts, eradicated units, and re-infested units, indicating effective management of potential pest issues. While the October 2022 complaints and February 2022 code violation raised concerns about building modifications and compliance, it is worth noting that the bedbug reporting requirements have been consistently met in the years since the violation, suggesting improved attention to regulatory compliance.
