967 Bergen Street, Brooklyn, NY 11216
The 16-unit, 4-story tenement building at 967 Bergen Street in Crown Heights, built in 1905 and currently owned by Sam Rubin, has experienced recurring maintenance issues over the past two years, with a particularly notable cluster of problems in early 2025. Between January and February 2025, the building received multiple complaints regarding heat and hot water issues, plumbing problems (including radiator and steam pipe concerns), and pest-related concerns, with HPD often unable to gain access for inspection.
The building has a documented history of heating system problems, with emergency complaints filed for heat and hot water issues in December 2024, March 2024, and multiple instances in early 2025. Additional maintenance challenges include a mold violation documented in March 2024 in Apartment 2C's bathroom, and recurring rodent activity as evidenced by multiple inspections in 2024-2025, though a March 2025 inspection resulted in a "Passed" rating. The building has maintained an active bedbug reporting history from 2021-2025, consistently showing zero infested units in the most recent filings.
Historical records from 2019 indicate several general maintenance violations related to public areas, including ceiling repairs and safety notices, which have all been addressed. The building's recent heating system issues and persistent rodent concerns are of particular note, while the consistent filing of bedbug reports showing no infestations suggests effective pest management. The most pressing current challenges appear to be related to access issues during inspections, as several complaints in both 2024 and early 2025 were closed due to inspectors being unable to gain access for verification of the reported problems.
