874 Troy Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11203
The four-story, 8-unit building at 874 Troy Avenue in East Flatbush, owned by Cynthia Caton, has experienced multiple significant maintenance issues over recent years, with the most pressing concerns being persistent heat and hot water problems in 2025 and various water-related issues in 2023. Three separate heat/hot water complaints were filed in April 2025, with at least one remaining open as of the last inspection.
In 2023, the building faced several interconnected problems, particularly concentrated in apartment 3A, including water leaks (both heavy flow and slow leaks), mold infestations, and ceiling plaster/paint issues, all of which resulted in multiple violation citations. Additionally, there were concerning reports of sanitation issues in July 2023, with violations issued for mold and pest infestations (roaches and mice) in apartment 3A.
The building has some outstanding violations that merit attention, including an April 2024 citation regarding an unfiled annual bedbug report and a 2019 environmental control board violation related to an illegal cellar apartment conversion with unauthorized facilities. The property has also had issues with fire escape access, as documented in July 2023 violations for flower pots obstructing egress from second, third, and fourth-story balconies.
