1290 East 48th Street, Brooklyn, NY 11234
The two-story, three-unit residential building at 1290 East 48th Street in Flatlands, owned by William Ciporen, has a mixed history of maintenance and compliance issues since its 1930 construction. Most notably, there are three open violations from 2021-2024 related to the failure to file annual bedbug reports as required under the Housing Maintenance Code.
The building recently experienced a standing water issue in June 2025 that resulted in a summons from the Department of Health and Mental Hygiene, with follow-up inspections to be scheduled. In November 2021, multiple complaints were filed regarding various issues including an electric/gas range, pest problems, and plumbing concerns involving a sink; however, these complaints were closed due to the Department of Housing Preservation and Development's inability to gain access for inspections.
The building's rodent inspection history in 2013 shows inconsistent results, with two initial inspections failing for "Other Reasons" and subsequent compliance inspections passing. The property has also undergone some Class A violations transitions, suggesting it has been converted from its original building class designation. While the building's age and history show periodic maintenance challenges, it has been able to meet some compliance requirements over the years, though recent violations regarding bedbug reporting remain a significant concern.
