1424 Flatbush Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11210

1424 Flatbush Avenue is a three-story, four-unit old law tenement building constructed in 1933 and currently owned by Rachel Phipps. The building has experienced recurring heating system issues over recent years, with four documented complaints between 2019 and 2021 regarding insufficient heat and hot water affecting the entire building. In each of these instances, while HPD responded to the complaints, they were either unable to gain access to the units for inspection or were informed that the heating issues had been resolved.

The building also had one refrigerator-related appliance complaint in January 2019 that similarly could not be inspected due to access issues. The property has undergone several safety and compliance inspections, revealing some historical concerns. In 2018, a Class C housing maintenance violation was issued regarding defective window guards in the third-story apartment, though this appears to have been addressed.

A bedbug reporting requirement violation was noted in February 2022, though the status of this violation is unclear from the provided data. Notably, the building's bedbug reports from 2021 through present (most recently in January 2025) indicate zero infested units, zero eradicated units, and zero re-infested units, suggesting the property has maintained a clean record in this regard. While there were two rodent inspection failures in 2015, there is no subsequent rodent-related activity noted in the more recent years of inspection data, indicating this issue may have been resolved. The building's heating system issues, while significant, appear to have been intermittent rather than chronic, and there have been no recorded heating complaints since 2021.
