1206 Pacific Street, Brooklyn, NY 11216

At 1206 Pacific Street in Crown Heights, the 4-story, 32-unit tenement building constructed in 1915 has experienced several ongoing maintenance issues, most notably regarding heating, water systems, and compliance with inspection requirements. Recent complaints from late 2024 through early 2025 indicate problems with heating systems, including a November 2024 complaint about inadequate heat that required Department of Health intervention. Water-related issues have also been a concern, with multiple complaints about leaks and flow problems, including an emergency complaint from September 2024.

The building has an active violation outstanding as of June 2023 regarding the failure to file required external low-pressure inspections for multiple years (2018-2023), indicating potential safety system maintenance neglect. The property has a documented history of heating system problems, with multiple complaints about heat and hot water issues in late 2019, though inspections were unable to gain access to verify the conditions. In 2021, several significant violations were issued regarding building safety concerns, including inadequate means of egress and sprinkler system deficiencies, particularly relating to an illegally occupied cellar level.

While there have been multiple violations requiring correction, including for bedbug management, the building has maintained a consistent record of passing rodent inspections, with all inspections from 2020 through 2025 showing compliance. More recently, there were complaints about sidewalk shed conditions and boiler issues in early 2025, though inspections were unable to gain access to verify these conditions in one instance. Notably, the building has demonstrated successful bedbug management, with no reported infestations in recent years.
