AI summary · updated June 2026

The 12-unit, 6-story building at 912 Bergen Street in Crown Heights, owned by Menahem Chukroon, has experienced several maintenance issues since its construction in 2016, with particular attention needed to safety and plumbing systems. Most recently, in June 2025, there were violations issued regarding smoke detector safety, though these can be addressed by the property owner within a designated timeframe before further legal action is considered. The building has faced recurring issues with hot water systems, as evidenced by multiple violations in 2023-2024 related to temperatures exceeding the legal maximum of 130 degrees across several apartments (2A, 3A, 6A). There have also been persistent rodent issues, with multiple complaints and inspections between 2024 and 2025 showing rat activity, though a compliance inspection in January 2024 showed passing results.

The building's maintenance history shows multiple attempts by HPD to inspect and address various issues throughout 2025, including problems with electric gas ranges, doors, and plumbing systems, though some inspections were complicated by access issues. Prior to these recent problems, the building had faced water leak issues in late 2024, with multiple complaints about heavy flow conditions. Several violations have been officially closed, including those related to rodent infestation at the building front and a sink repair requirement in apartment 3B. The property has maintained an active bedbug reporting record from 2021 to present, consistently showing zero infested or re-infested units. Additionally, the Department of Buildings records indicate some historical violations from 2018-2020, including a rating for egress issues in 2020, though these were resolved and closed.
