1362 Pacific Street, Brooklyn, NY 11216

The 4-unit, 3-story apartment building at 1362 Pacific Street in Crown Heights, currently owned by James Grasso, has experienced significant maintenance and construction issues since late 2018. In December 2018, the building faced multiple housing code violations, including problems with heat/hot water, plumbing systems, flooring, and walls, leading to several emergency maintenance complaints. A cluster of violations during this period affected both unit conditions and common areas, with issues ranging from water supply problems to flooring defects and paint/plaster damage.

The most recent housing maintenance code violations from 2021-2024 reveal ongoing bedbug reporting compliance issues and various maintenance needs in apartment 4, including problems with light fixtures, window guards, carbon monoxide detectors, and the building's bell buzzer system. The building has undergone multiple construction activities between 2021-2025, with work being repeatedly halted and re-permitted due to various safety and compliance issues. Several stop work orders were issued between 2021-2024, with particular attention to scaffold safety violations and construction debris management.

Water damage was reported in early 2021, affecting both the subject building and the adjacent property at 1360 Pacific Street, requiring emergency attention. Recent rodent inspections in 2024-2025 have shown recurring rat activity, though bait applications were implemented in response to these findings. While the building has received multiple construction permits between 2021-2025, including several recent permits issued in 2023-2024, the persistent nature of code violations and maintenance issues suggests ongoing challenges with building systems and compliance requirements. The most recent inspection dates from 2025 indicate continued monitoring of construction compliance and rodent control measures.
