This building has 1526 recorded HPD violations, above the East Flatbush average of 34.0.
The 3202 Foster Avenue building in East Flatbush, a 6-story, 42-unit structure built in 1950 and currently owned by Flatbush Gardens Housing Development Fund Corporation, has experienced numerous and significant maintenance and safety issues over recent years. The property has recorded an alarming number of housing maintenance violations between 2017-2024, including 275 Class A, 839 Class B, and 687 Class C violations, along with 2,177 complaints. Most concerning is the current situation as of September 2026, where six emergency complaints have been filed simultaneously regarding unsanitary conditions (mold), electrical issues (no lighting), flooring problems, appliance failures, door concerns, and plumbing issues, all still marked as open. The building has a documented history of structural concerns, particularly with its parapet wall system which has shown signs of instability and required multiple inspection reports and corrective action plans throughout 2025. Elevator service has been another persistent issue, with multiple complaints regarding the single device serving the entire building, affecting many elderly and disabled residents. Additional concerns have been raised about pest control, with reports of bedbug infestations in 35 units and a cockroach infestation in Apartment 4F as of September 2026. The property has also faced multiple environmental control board fines, including penalties for work being performed without proper notifications and general maintenance failures, with particular attention required for the 2025 annual parapet observation report compliance.

What's in the 3202 Foster Avenue report
Is 3202 Foster Avenue rent-stabilized?
Rent stabilization caps how much your rent can rise and protects your right to renew. Here's how this building scores on the four signals that usually point to it.
Based on public NYC records. Not legal advice — verify with the DHCR (Division of Housing and Community Renewal) at apps.hcr.ny.gov.
Is 3202 Foster Avenue covered by Good Cause Eviction?
New York's Good Cause Eviction law (effective April 20, 2024) gives many market-rate tenants the right to renew their lease and challenge rent hikes above the annual local rent standard. It doesn't apply to every building.
Good Cause also excludes condos & co-ops, subsidized/regulated housing, and units renting above 245% of Fair Market Rent — signals we can't always confirm from public data. Not legal advice. Learn more at nyc.gov or call 311 for the Tenant Helpline.
How 3202 Foster Avenue's risk score is calculated
