27 Crown Street, Brooklyn, NY 11225

The 6-story New Law Tenement building at 27 Crown Street in Crown Heights, owned by Daria Siegel, has experienced several significant maintenance issues in recent years. Most notably, between February and May 2025, multiple violations were documented, particularly concerning appliances (including a refrigerator and electric range), cabinetry, and plumbing (bathtub/shower) issues. During this period, there were also concerns about unsanitary conditions, including mold and pest infestations, and various repairs needed for building systems including the intercom, heating, and flooring.

Earlier records show a pattern of compliance difficulties, including five years of missed EER (Energy Efficiency Report) filings between 2019-2023, and unresolved violations for elevator service in 2019, which resulted in an ECB (Environmental Control Board) violation. The building has also faced issues with its safety systems, with multiple violations in 2018 concerning smoke detectors and carbon monoxide detectors, though these were eventually certified as corrected in late 2024. Recent maintenance patterns suggest ongoing challenges, particularly with appliances and building systems, as evidenced by multiple service requests and violations in 2025.

The building has demonstrated an ability to respond to and resolve many inspections and violations over time, with most issues being addressed through the normal inspection and correction process. While the building has had historical issues with pests, recent bedbug reports from 2021 through 2024 indicate that while there were significant infestations in 2019-2020, there have been no reports of infestations or required eradications in the past three years. The property has maintained compliance with various housing codes, with only a few active violations remaining, including one related to failure to file the 2020 external low-pressure inspection.
