2242 Clarendon Road, Brooklyn, NY 11226

2242 Clarendon Road is a 27-unit, 4-story New Law Tenement building located in Flatbush, constructed in 1931 and currently owned by Jhilmar Martinez. The property has experienced persistent heating system issues throughout 2024-2025, with multiple complaints about lack of heat and hot water affecting either individual apartments or the entire building, with the most recent complaints occurring in March 2025.

These complaints are particularly concerning as they represent ongoing infrastructure challenges. In June 2024, there were violations issued for mold in apartment 2E, which required remediation, along with other plumbing-related issues. The building underwent an inspection in September 2022 that identified several maintenance concerns, including defective plaster surfaces, a fire escape obstruction, and an infestation of roaches in apartment 4G, all of which were subsequently addressed.

The property has maintained a clean record regarding bedbug infestations, with zero reported cases in the annual filings from 2020 through 2024, indicating effective pest management. The building's maintenance history shows some recurring issues, particularly with plumbing and building systems, as evidenced by multiple heat-related complaints and various maintenance violations over recent years. While most violations have been addressed and closed, the pattern of heating system complaints over the past year suggests ongoing challenges with building systems.
