124 New York Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11216
This 4-story, 9-unit building at 124 New York Avenue in Crown Heights, owned by Charlene Gayle, has faced numerous maintenance challenges in recent years. Most concerning are the recurring mold problems, with two unsanitary condition complaints specifically citing mold in 2025 (one emergency complaint). The building has experienced multiple maintenance issues requiring HPD inspections that could not be completed due to access problems, including complaints about the intercom system, window frame, floor conditions, and pest control.
There have been several heat and hot water complaints, with at least one being designated as an emergency. The building's maintenance history reveals persistent issues requiring attention, including three active Department of Buildings violations for failure to file external low pressure inspection reports (2018-2020) and a notable boiler-related ECB violation from 2019 regarding an unpermitted Peerless Boiler installation. Recent rodent inspections show a pattern of rat activity, particularly in 2023-2024, though the most recent inspection in April 2025 resulted in a "Passed" designation.
While the building has maintained proper bedbug reporting procedures with no reported infestations, the overall pattern of repeated maintenance issues, particularly regarding heating systems, unsanitary conditions, and access problems for inspections, suggests ongoing challenges in building upkeep. The property has been through two separate inspections specifically for rodent activity in 2022, and both indicated some level of rat presence. The most recent rodent inspection from April 2025 showed an improvement with a "Passed" result.
