748 Flatbush Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11226
748 Flatbush Avenue is a 4-story, 12-unit residential building constructed in 1910, currently owned by John Touhey. The property has experienced several significant maintenance issues in recent years, with the most pressing concerns concentrated in 2024. In July 2024, inspections revealed multiple open violations in Apartment 1, including infestations of roaches and mice, defective smoke and carbon monoxide detectors, a problematic locking device, and various repair needs involving water leaks, plastered surfaces, and door functionality.
The building has also suffered from recurring heat and hot water issues, with multiple complaints between October and November 2022 and a more recent incident in November 2023, though HPD inspections usually confirmed that services had been restored. Additional maintenance problems were documented in early 2023, including issues with exterior elements such as gutters, roof access, and various door and window components, along with electrical wiring concerns. The most recent building complaints prominently feature water-related issues, with a heavy flow water leak complaint and mold concerns reported in June 2024, the latter being classified as unsanitary but closed without violations.
Inspection records from July 2024 show primarily Class B and C violations in Apartment 1, affecting habitability and safety systems. While the building has maintained a relatively stable pest control record in recent years, with no bedbug infestations reported from 2021 to 2024, the current open violations related to pest control and building systems suggest ongoing maintenance challenges. The Department of Buildings complaint from 2019 regarding site conditions was closed with no violations found, indicating this was likely an isolated incident.
