90 Sterling Place, Brooklyn, NY 11217

90 Sterling Place is a four-unit, four-story Old Law Tenement building located in Park Slope, built in 1882 and currently owned by Tobias Johnson. The property has experienced recurring rodent issues, with three rat sightings reported to the Department of Health and Mental Hygiene (DOHMH) in 2021, and follow-up inspections in April and September 2021 showing no violations, though a February 2022 inspection did document rat activity.

More significantly, in late 2022, the building faced multiple serious violations related to plumbing and drainage systems in the cellar area, including improper dryer vent installation, unpermitted work involving water and gas lines for washers and dryers, and improper drainage fixture installation. These violations resulted in Environmental Control Board penalties totaling $4,375, though records indicate they were subsequently resolved. The property has maintained a clean record regarding bedbug infestations, with no reported cases over the past five reporting periods from 2021 through 2024.

The building's plumbing issues were addressed through Oath and Department of Buildings violations served in February 2023. The most recent inspections and filings suggest that while the building has experienced significant maintenance challenges in the past, particularly in late 2022, there have been no new reported violations or infestations in the past two years. The property's historical data shows regular compliance inspections for both rodent control and bedbug reporting, with the latter consistently showing no affected units or eradication efforts required.
