246 East 46th Street, Brooklyn, NY 11203
246 East 46th Street is a two-family house located in East Flatbush, built in 1899 and currently owned by Delicia Benjamingarnes. The property has experienced recurring maintenance issues, particularly regarding mold, pests, and window conditions.
Most notably, there are multiple open violations from January 2022 concerning Apartment 2B, including issues with windows (broken glass and defective spring balances), carbon monoxide detectors, wall conditions, and documented mold problems in both the bathroom and other areas. The building has a significant indictment of illegal use, with an active Environmental Control Board violation from August 2021 related to unauthorized cellar conversions creating four illegal SRO rooms with an unlawful kitchen sink and full bathroom, for which a $1,250 penalty was imposed. Recent activity from 2025 indicates ongoing concerns about illegal conversions, with complaints filed in April and June 2025 regarding illegal hotel rooms and unauthorized conversions, though the property has maintained a clean record regarding bedbug infestations across three reporting periods from 2020 to 2024.
Historical complaints and violations show a pattern of maintenance issues, particularly during 2021-2022, including problems with doors, windows, flooring, and various unsanitary conditions. While some of these issues were addressed and closed, many violations remain open as of the most recent data review. The building's history suggests persistent maintenance challenges, particularly related to moisture-related problems and unauthorized modifications to the building's layout and systems.
