112 Kingston Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11213

112 Kingston Avenue is a three-story, two-family residential building located in Crown Heights, built in 1899 and currently owned by Gongfang Chen. The property has experienced recurring issues with rodent activity, with eight rat sighting complaints filed between September 2024 and March 2025, though most recent inspections in January 2025 resulted in a "Passed" status.

The building has also faced persistent indoor air quality concerns, with four recorded complaints in early 2025 related to chemical vapors and dry cleaning solvents, two of which warranted official advisories to the owner. In July 2024, three significant Department of Buildings (DOB) complaints were filed, including one for work without a permit in an occupied multiple dwelling, which resulted in an Oath Violation.

An illegal opening between 112 Kingston Avenue and 110 Kingston Avenue, breaching the firewall, was documented in July 2024 and resulted in a $1,250 penalty. The property has maintained a consistent record of bedbug-free status in its annual reports from 2020 through 2025, and both plumbing (PL) and excavation (EW) permits were issued in 2019-2020 for work on the property. While there have been multiple rodent-related service requests, the building's regular passing inspections and the absence of violations from these inspections suggest responsive management to pest control requirements, though the persistence of complaints indicates ongoing concerns.
