215 Sterling Place, Brooklyn, NY 11238

215 Sterling Place is a 6-story, 82-unit residential building constructed in 1937 in Prospect Heights, currently owned by David Akselrad. The property has experienced recurring heat and hot water issues, with three separate complaints between December 2023 and January 2024 - one affecting the entire building and two affecting individual apartments. These heating system problems echo a similar incident from October 2022 and represent the most recent and pressing maintenance concerns.

The building has also faced various plumbing-related issues, including problems with a bathtub/shower in 2021, a basin/sink in 2021, and water supply concerns in late 2020, all classified as emergency complaints. The building's maintenance history reveals several significant incidents requiring attention. In March 2021, violations were issued for paint and plumbing issues in apartment 5H, specifically regarding radiator paint conditions and leaky kitchen sink faucets, though these violations were subsequently certified as corrected. The property has undergone multiple elevator-related inspections, with three complaints between 2019-2024, including a building shaking/vibrating concern in 2019.

While no violations were found during these inspections, they suggest ongoing monitoring of building systems. The building's pest control history shows consistent reporting of zero bedbug infestations from 2019 to 2025, though there were rodent activity concerns in 2014-2018, with the last rodent inspection in 2018 showing a passed result. All housing maintenance code violations and complaints have been resolved, with the most recent complaints regarding heating issues being addressed promptly, though the recurring nature of these heating problems warrants attention. The building maintains an overall record of compliance with housing maintenance codes, with no active violations as of the current date.
