Is 115 Clymer Street, Brooklyn getting better or worse?
Certifications are being filed faster than new violations come in. 12 certifications filed against 3 new Class C in the last 180 days. That window ends September 26, 2026. It compares certifications filed with new Class C violations, and it describes what happened, not what anyone intends.
When were certifications filed on Class C violations at 115 Clymer Street, Brooklyn?
Since September 28, 2023, certifications were filed on 19 Class C violations, all 19 by the original certify-by date. A certification is the filing, dated when it was made, not HPD's acceptance of it. It is compared with the original certify-by date on the notice. A granted postponement moves that date and the city's data keeps only the first, so a certification counted after it may still have met a postponed date.
Is an HPD vacate order in effect at 115 Clymer Street, Brooklyn?
Yes. HPD's vacate order for part of the building has been in effect since August 19, 2016. Reason on the order: fire damage. A vacate order requires all or part of a building to be emptied for the reason on the order, and it stays in effect until HPD rescinds it. HPD Online shows whether an order has been rescinded since.
Does 115 Clymer Street, Brooklyn have an OATH hearing coming up?
Yes. 5 hearings scheduled on DOB summonses, the first on October 21, 2026. DOB summonses are heard at OATH, the city's hearings office, and OATH can move a hearing to a later date. When nobody shows up, the summons is decided by default, the costliest way one ends.
Does 115 Clymer Street, Brooklyn have active DOB violations?
Yes. 6 active DOB violations, most of them for boiler filings under Local Law 62/91. The newest was issued April 22, 2025. The Department of Buildings writes these separately from HPD's housing violations, for things like boilers, elevators, facades, construction and energy filings. Each one stays active until DOB resolves or dismisses it.
Has DOB received complaints about 115 Clymer Street, Brooklyn?
Yes. 14 DOB complaints in the last 12 months. The newest was filed September 17, 2026. Anyone can complain to DOB about a building or the work going on in it, and DOB then inspects and decides whether there is a violation. A conversion complaint says an apartment may have been added or changed without approval. It is a complaint, not a finding.
What did the latest facade report find at 115 Clymer Street, Brooklyn?
Rated SWARMP in the latest facade report, filed May 18, 2022 (inspection cycle 9). SWARMP means safe with a repair and maintenance program. Buildings taller than six stories must have their exterior walls inspected once in every inspection cycle under the city's Facade Inspection Safety Program (every five years under DOB's current rule), and each inspection report is filed with DOB as Safe, SWARMP (safe with a repair and maintenance program) or Unsafe. No Report Filed means DOB has no report for that cycle. The rating is from the latest filing and does not describe the facade today; DOB's page for the building shows anything filed since.
Are any DOB work permits in effect at 115 Clymer Street, Brooklyn?
Yes. 12 DOB work permits in effect. The latest, for General Construction work, was issued June 3, 2026. A permit in effect allows the work it names. It does not mean the work has started or finished, or that it fixes any violation on this page.
Is 115 Clymer Street, Brooklyn covered by Local Law 97?
Yes. It is on DOB's Local Law 97 covered buildings list. Covered from 2035 as an income-restricted building (DOB's list, March 1, 2026). Local Law 97 sets greenhouse gas limits for most New York City buildings over 25,000 square feet, and DOB's covered buildings list says which path each building is on. The list reflects DOB's records, which owners can ask DOB to correct. This page never estimates a penalty or says whether a building complies.
