1102 Dean Street, Brooklyn, NY 11216

The four-story, 10-unit residential building at 1102 Dean Street in Crown Heights, owned by David Beek and constructed in 1931, has experienced several notable events over recent years. In late 2021, there were significant heat and hot water issues reported for the entire building, classified as emergency complaints, though inspectors from the Department of Housing Preservation and Development were unable to gain access to confirm the conditions.

Following this, two violations were noted in November 2021: one concerning the need to arrange and make self-closing the front entrance doors on the first story (Class C violation), and another requiring the posting of gas leak procedures in a common area (Class A violation); both of these violations were certified as corrected by December 2021. The building has maintained a consistent record of bedbug-free status, with annual reports from 2019 through 2025 showing zero infested units, all of which were reported as eradicated.

Most recently, in early 2025, the building underwent a rodent inspection that initially failed in March 2025 for unspecified reasons, though a subsequent compliance inspection in April 2025 resulted in a passing grade. Prior to this, the building had maintained a strong record of compliance, passing all rodent inspections conducted between 2020 and 2024. Despite the 2021 heating issues and the recent rodent inspection failures, the overall pattern suggests improving conditions, with particular note that no bedbug infestations have been reported in over five years and that most recent rodent inspections have been successful.
