42 St Johns Place, Brooklyn, NY 11217

The three-story, seven-unit building at 42 St Johns Place in Park Slope, owned by Zahava Goren, has maintained a generally good record since its 1920 construction, particularly regarding pest control and heat maintenance. The most recent significant event occurred in January 2023, when a rodent sighting was reported, though this was quickly addressed with an inspection that found only minor violations.

In March 2021, there was an emergency complaint about heat and hot water issues affecting the entire building, but HPD was unable to gain access for inspection, resulting in the closure of that complaint. Notably, the building received a bedbug violation in April 2021 related to the failure to file the required annual report, though this appears to have been resolved quickly.

The building's pest control record over the past five years shows consistent attention to maintenance, with no documented instances of bedbug infestation since the 2021 violation, as evidenced by five consecutive annual reports (from 2019 to 2024) showing zero infested or re-infested units. Both the 2018 and 2023 rodent inspections resulted in passing grades, suggesting effective management of these issues when they arise. While there have been occasional maintenance concerns, the relatively prompt resolution of complaints and the building's current pest control status indicate a generally well-maintained property.
