571 Sterling Place, Brooklyn, NY 11238

571 Sterling Place is a three-story, six-unit residential tenement building constructed in 1904, currently owned by Margaret Moise and located in Crown Heights. The building has experienced several significant maintenance issues over the past few years, with the most concerning being recurring mold complaints in late 2022 and early 2023, though inspections did not result in violations.

The property has also faced heating system challenges, with a heat and hot water outage reported in January 2021, which was resolved quickly according to tenant reports. A drinking water-related complaint in March 2020 was investigated by the Department of Health and found to have no health code violations. The building has multiple open violations regarding mandatory safety postings as of January 2021, including requirements for gas leak procedures, smoke detector information, and building registration details, all of which remain unresolved.

More recently, two violations were issued in June 2023 related to the failure to file external low pressure inspection reports for 2018 and 2019, which are currently active. Fortunately, the building has demonstrated good maintenance regarding pest control, with no recorded bedbug infestations in recent filings (2023-2025), and has successfully passed multiple rodent inspections throughout 2022-2025. While the building has faced various maintenance challenges, the consistent passing of rodent inspections and the absence of bedbug infestations over the past three filing periods are positive indicators of pest management.
