600 Sterling Place, Brooklyn, NY 11238

The three-story, six-unit tenement building at 600 Sterling Place in Crown Heights, owned by Zeev Sandman, has experienced several recurring maintenance issues since 2021. Most notably, there have been multiple heat and hot water complaints, with the most recent occurring in November 2024, though heat and hot water were confirmed to have been restored during inspections.

The building has also faced significant maintenance challenges, particularly in 2022, including unsanitary conditions with pest infestations (roaches in apartments 2F and 2R), mold issues, plumbing problems, and door frame concerns, all of which resulted in violations. More recent building inspections from 2023-2024 revealed specific ongoing issues in apartment 2F, including water leaks, pest infestations, and multiple code violations related to interior conditions, though these violations were all certified as addressed by August 2023. The building's documented history shows attention to safety concerns, with previous violations regarding smoke detectors and carbon monoxide detectors in 2022-2023, though these appear to have been resolved.

A violation for failure to file the 2023 External Low Pressure Inspection was issued in September 2024 and remains active. Importantly, the building has maintained a consistent record of passing rodent inspections over the past three years (2023-2025) and has shown no reported bedbug infestations in recent annual filings (2023-2024), though there were several previous years of consistent zero infestation reports. The property appears to have stable tenant reporting mechanisms in place, as evidenced by timely 311 complaints and subsequent inspections.
