Questions about this building
Does 22 East 96 Street, Brooklyn have open violations?
Yes. 22 East 96 Street, Brooklyn had 21 open violations on September 26, 2026: 21 from HPD. 13 are Class C, the class HPD treats as immediately hazardous.
Is 22 East 96 Street, Brooklyn getting better or worse?
Open violations are sitting, with little movement either way. 13 open Class C, with 7 certifications filed and 1 new Class C in the last 180 days, too few to call a direction. 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 22 East 96 Street, Brooklyn?
Since September 28, 2023, certifications were filed on 12 Class C violations, all 12 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.
Does 22 East 96 Street, Brooklyn have active DOB violations?
Yes. 1 active DOB violation, issued August 16, 1993. 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.
Is 22 East 96 Street, Brooklyn in housing court?
Yes. 1 open housing court case, opened January 13, 2025. HPD takes buildings to housing court to get violations fixed and heat and hot water restored, and it joins tenants' own repair cases, called tenant actions. A case stays open until the court closes it.
Has DOB received complaints about 22 East 96 Street, Brooklyn?
Yes. 1 DOB complaint in the last 12 months. It was filed May 14, 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.
Is 22 East 96 Street, Brooklyn rent stabilized?
The building has rent-stabilized apartments on its 2024 registration. That comes from the Rent Guidelines Board's list of buildings with at least one stabilized apartment registered that year.

The city's record gives 1926 as the year 22 East 96 Street, Brooklyn was built, in the Department of City Planning's PLUTO tax-lot file. The same file classes it as a walk-up apartment building with 4 floors.
How many apartments does 22 East 96 Street, Brooklyn have?

Where do these numbers come from?

This page is current through September 26, 2026. The city's data changes daily, so a violation certified after that can still show as open here; the city's own page for this building is linked above.
