816 Prospect Place, Brooklyn, NY 11216
The 4-story, 9-unit building at 816 Prospect Place in Crown Heights, owned by 816 Prospect Llc, has experienced several maintenance issues in recent years, with the most significant problems occurring in 2024. Multiple water leak complaints were recorded in March 2024, including both slow and heavy flow leaks, particularly affecting the bathroom in apartment 4B. This unit also received violation notices in March 2024 for leaking ceilings and bathroom door issues, though these were certified as corrected by April 2024.
The building has faced recurring pest control challenges, including a November 2024 pest complaint (closed without inspection) and a June 2019 rodent situation that warranted DOHMH involvement. More recent inspections have shown mixed results, with rodent activity identified in December 2024 and improving compliance inspections in early 2025. The building has experienced several safety-related maintenance issues, including a March 2024 complaint regarding a smoke detector that could not be inspected due to access issues. Unresolved complaints from late 2024 include an electrical/gas range issue that could not be inspected.
The landlord has generally addressed violations when cited, as evidenced by the April 2024 certification of various repairs. The property has maintained a bedbug-free status in its most recent annual reporting (2024-2025) across all five reporting periods since 2021, showing no infested units or eradication cases. Recent rodent inspections in early 2025 have passed, though there were previous concerns noted in 2024 and 2022 with rat activity detected during initial inspections. The building's overall condition shows a pattern of maintenance responsiveness, but with recurring issues that suggest ongoing challenges with water leaks, pest control, and safety system maintenance.
