910 Caton Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11218

The 16-unit, 4-story residential tenement building at 910 Caton Avenue in Flatbush, owned by Margareta Miller and constructed in 1914, has experienced persistent maintenance challenges throughout 2024-2025. The most pressing issues have been recurring heating and hot water failures, with multiple emergency complaints reported between February and April 2025, affecting both individual apartments and the entire building. Additional maintenance concerns include a slow water leak reported in April 2025, rodent infestations with violations noted in 2023-2025, and mold problems reported in multiple inspections.

A significant cluster of violations was recorded in July 2024 involving Apartment 48, including issues with pest infestations (mice and roaches), floor damage, missing safety detectors, and storage of mattresses in exit corridors. The building underwent inspection-related issues in late 2024, with officials unable to complete inspections for several complaints, including for window frame problems and unsanitary conditions. Notably, in September 2023, there were citations for illegal conversion and unauthorized construction work creating a 17th dwelling unit in the cellar, though these were later resolved.

The property has generally maintained compliance with bedbug reporting requirements, showing no infestations in recent years, and has passed most rodent inspections, though recent rodent activity was confirmed in March 2025. The building has experienced periodic elevator issues, though specific complaint instances are limited in the available data. While many complaints have been addressed and closed, the pattern of recurring heating, water, and pest-related issues suggests ongoing maintenance challenges within the building's infrastructure and systems.
