Augrented Insights Report for 500 St Johns Place

The 112-unit, 6-story building at 500 St Johns Place in Crown Heights, owned by Eva Stern 500 LLC, has experienced a range of maintenance and safety issues since 2020. Most notably, there have been persistent rodent activity problems, with multiple inspections in 2023-2025 showing rat activity and bait application requirements.

The elevator infrastructure has shown significant maintenance needs, with multiple violations and complaints about device functionality between 2019-2025, including issues with mirrors, hydraulic systems, and safety equipment that resulted in monetary penalties. Recent inspections in 2025 have revealed various building maintenance challenges, including multiple complaints about paint and plaster conditions, a violation related to flooring issues, and concerns about garbage/recycling storage.

The building has history with lead paint violations, particularly in Apartment 1C where violations were documented in 2024. While there have been several inspections that found no violations, including for heating and plumbing systems, the recurring nature of complaints across different building systems suggests ongoing maintenance challenges. The property has demonstrated ongoing efforts to address these issues, as evidenced by the closure of many violations and the implementation of rodent control measures, though some violations remain active as of the current date.
