2149 Caton Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11226
The two-family house at 2149 Caton Avenue in Flatbush, owned by Scott Rosenthal, has experienced a series of recurring maintenance issues since 2022, with the most pressing concerns centering around electrical problems and pest control. Between 2022 and 2024, there have been multiple complaints about inadequate lighting, with three emergency electric-related complaints specifically about "No Lighting" in 2023-2024, though inspections by the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD) did not result in violations being issued.
The building has faced additional challenges including rodent activity, as evidenced by inspections in 2023 showing rat presence, and various maintenance issues requiring attention to doors, windows, and ceiling conditions. Significant open violations remain as of 2025 related to multiple building systems including electrical infrastructure, ceiling conditions, and door problems.
A concerning pattern emerges from the records showing several emergency complaints regarding safety issues between 2022-2023, including problems with the fire escape and smoke detectors, both of which are critical for resident safety. There are also active Department of Buildings violations from June 2023 regarding failure to file external low pressure inspections for 2018 and 2019, as well as an open violation from November 2019 related to boiler inspection documentation. While recent bedbug reports (2023-2024) show no infestations, the building's maintenance history suggests continuing challenges with various systems requiring ongoing attention.
