1268 Pacific Street, Brooklyn, NY 11216
1268 Pacific Street is a 4-story, 7-unit residential building located in Crown Heights and owned by Marvin Hellman, constructed in 1906 as a New Law tenement building. The property has experienced recurring maintenance issues over the past three years, with particular concerns around water leaks and heating systems. Most recently, in early 2025, multiple complaints about water leaks, ceiling issues, and heating problems were reported, though inspections were often unable to gain access to the affected areas.
Between 2023-2024, similar complaints persisted, including documented violations for ceiling paint/plaster issues in Apartment 1A. The building has a history of heating system problems, with emergency complaints filed in 2020, 2021, and 2023. The property underwent several inspections in 2024 that revealed violations requiring attention, including issues with mailboxes, bicycle encumbrances, and self-closing doors in the cellar/boiler room area.
While four rodent-related inspections were conducted between 2022 and 2025, with some showing rat activity, the most recent inspection in June 2025 passed compliance. The building's bedbug reports from 2022-2025 show minimal infestations, with only one documented case in 2020. Two complaints of work being done without permits were filed in October 2023, though inspectors were unable to gain access during their visits. The property has seen various maintenance code violations throughout the years, including issues with smoke detectors, carbon monoxide detectors, and interior finishes in the residential units.
