844 Flatbush Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11226
844 Flatbush Avenue is a 12-unit, 4-story Old Law Tenement building constructed in 1914 and currently owned by Elliot Romano. The building has experienced recurring heat and hot water issues in early 2025, with multiple complaints filed between January 23 and February 9, 2025, affecting both individual apartments and the entire building. These complaints were primarily classified as emergencies, though some were not completed due to access issues.
Additional recent concerns include a power outage in January 2025 and problems with cooking gas that same month. The building has been under scrutiny for various maintenance issues, with three active Class C violations as of 2024 related to self-closing doors (including one at the first-story cellar entrance), hot water temperature regulation, and one specific to apartment 2B regarding roach infestation and hot water problems. Previous violations dating back to late 2023 include issues with self-closing doors in apartments 2A and 2B, and concerns regarding the fire escape drop ladder in 2024, which was subsequently certified as corrected.
The building has maintained an active bedbug reporting record from 2019 through 2025, showing zero infested units in the most recent filings, with only one recorded infested unit in 2019 that is no longer in existence. Rodent inspections have consistently passed since 2018, and there was a pest-related complaint in June 2024 that resulted in no violations being issued. A historical complaint from 2018 regarding an illegal storefront sign was resolved in 2021. The building's overall condition shows recurring issues with basic services like heat and hot water, though many complaints were resolved quickly, often within a few days of reporting.
