632 Sterling Place, Brooklyn, NY 11238

The 4-story, 10-unit tenement building at 632 Sterling Place in Crown Heights, managed by 632 Sterling LLC and constructed in 1906, has a notable history of maintenance and compliance issues particularly between 2018 and 2020. Recent records show two significant service requests in the past two years: a heat/hot water issue in January 2025 that was reportedly resolved, and a heavy water leak in mid-2023 that was inspected with no violations found. The building experienced multiple water-related problems historically, with three documented water leak complaints between 2020 and 2023 of varying severity.

In August 2023, apartment 3C received violations for both pest infestation (roaches) and defective plaster/paint issues. The period from 2018 to 2020 was particularly eventful, with multiple violations and complaints related to construction work and safety compliance. These included several building safety violations in late 2020, such as occupation without proper certificates, fire escape obstruction, and sprinkler system issues.

There were also several complaints and violations regarding construction safety compliance between 2018 and 2020, including unpermitted work, debris management issues, and concerns about construction site safety. The building's systems have been under regular inspection, with recent records in 2025 showing successful rodent inspections and no evidence of bedbug infestations in the past five reporting periods from 2019 to 2025, suggesting improved pest management conditions. The most recent environmental control board violations from 2019 were resolved, though there remains one active violation from 2023 regarding the failure to file the 2018 external low-pressure inspection.
