390 East 46th Street, Brooklyn, NY 11203

The three-unit, two-story residential building at 390 East 46th Street in East Flatbush, owned by Razia Nipa and constructed in 1899, has experienced several notable maintenance issues in recent years. Most recently, in October 2024, two separate complaints regarding unsanitary conditions related to pests were filed and subsequently resulted in violations after HPD inspection, though the property owner was granted time to address these issues per legal requirements.

Earlier in 2023, there was a report of a slow water leak which was investigated by the Department of Housing Preservation and Development, though no violations were issued in this instance. Additional records from 2023 show two complaints filed on October 7 regarding a sidewalk shed and an illegal conversion, though these were ultimately closed with no violations warranted at inspection.

The illegal conversion complaint was particularly noteworthy as it required two final inspection attempts for the inspector to gain access. Given the pattern of maintenance issues over the past two years, particularly the recent pest infestation violation, it is clear that the building has experienced ongoing habitability challenges that have required intervention from city agencies. The building's age and classification as a two-family house are consistent with its historical designation, though the recent complaints suggest some ongoing maintenance concerns.
