3202 Church Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11226

The three-story, two-family house at 3202 Church Avenue in East Flatbush, built in 1931 and currently owned by Teddy Mann, has experienced several concerning issues in recent years, with the most significant violations dating from late 2021. The property has active ECB violations from October 2021 alleging unauthorized occupancy as a social club and failure to provide unobstructed exit passageways, with associated penalties totaling $5,000. The building's permit and illegal conversion complaints in 2025 also faced access issues during inspections.

The property has a recurring history of rodent-related problems, with inspections showing rat activity in October 2023 and multiple compliance checks, though the most recent December 2023 inspection passed. Numerous 311 complaints regarding mobile food vendors have been filed between 2021 and 2024, primarily relating to food protection and garbage issues, with varying resolutions including closed and in-progress statuses. The building's Department of Buildings history reveals several access issues during inspections, particularly in 2021-2025, including concerns about egress, after-hours work, and multiple instances of inspectors being unable to gain access during their second final attempts.

The property has also faced challenges with occupancy compliance and failure to maintain proper certifications for hazardous violations, as evidenced by active violations noted in February 2022. While rodent control efforts have seen some success with passing inspections in 2016, 2012, and most recently in December 2023, the building's overall inspection history shows a pattern of access denial and regulatory compliance challenges. The most recent building inspection attempts in 2025 regarding permit and illegal conversion complaints were marked by inspectors being unable to gain access during their second attempts.
