1232 Pacific Street, Brooklyn, NY 11216
The 6-story, 36-unit building at 1232 Pacific Street in Crown Heights, built in 1905, has experienced significant maintenance issues over the past two years under the ownership of Isaac Schwartz. Most prominently, there has been a persistent pattern of door-related problems, with multiple complaints filed between April and June 2025 regarding doors across the building, several classified as emergencies, and some resulting in violations. The building has also faced plumbing and water supply issues, as evidenced by multiple HPD complaints in 2025, including a sewage-related complaint that the inspector could not access.
Two apartments, D1 and D2, were identified in November 2024 violations for various issues including defective smoke detectors, carbon monoxide detectors, and damaged plastered surfaces. Apartment F1 has open violations from September 2024 regarding pest infestations, specifically mice and roaches. The building's elevator system has been a recurring issue, with multiple complaints about single-device service and no alternate service between 2019 and 2025.
Environmental Control Board violations from 2022-2023 documented problems with the elevator system, fire escape, and building maintenance, with penalties ranging from $312 to $6,250. Recent rodent inspections in 2024-2025 indicate ongoing pest control challenges, with multiple inspections showing rat activity or other failures. While there have been no reported bedbug infestations in the building since at least 2022, and the most recent rodent control inspection in January 2025 passed, the persistence of various maintenance issues suggests ongoing challenges with building upkeep. The elevator system's reliability remains a significant concern, as evidenced by recent complaints and historical documentation of service interruptions.
