1214 Caton Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11218
1214 Caton Avenue is a 55-unit, 4-story New Law Tenement building located in Flatbush, built in 1921 and currently owned by Paul Dalmazio. The building has experienced recurring maintenance issues over the past several years, with the most recent concerns including violations related to flooring conditions and a refrigerator issue as of April 2025, and persistent pest problems, including roach infestations noted in 2024.
Multiple inspections in late 2024 through 2025 revealed various violations, including unsanitary conditions, with particular attention to mold issues in Apartment 6A that resulted in several Housing Maintenance Code violations being recorded and closed between August 2024 and late 2024. The building has also shown a pattern of maintenance challenges, with documented violations regarding door/window frames, wall conditions, and interior finishes throughout 2024-2025. The property has an active Department of Buildings violation from June 2023 regarding failure to file the 2020 External Low Pressure Inspection, indicating potential safety system maintenance oversight.
Additionally, there have been multiple historical instances of bedbug infestations between 2019 and 2024, though recent reports for 2023-2024 show no current infestations. The building's maintenance history suggests ongoing challenges with addressing and resolving various housing quality issues, including both emergency and non-emergency violations, despite many of these cases being officially closed through inspections and subsequent corrections. The persistence of certain issues, particularly around pests and interior maintenance, along with the outstanding DOB violation, highlights the building's continuing maintenance needs.
