654 Park Place, Brooklyn, NY 11216

654 Park Place is a 4-story, 13-unit residential building constructed in 1931 in Crown Heights, currently owned by 654 Park Place LLC. The building has experienced recurring water-related issues, with three documented slow water leak complaints between 2019 and 2022, though only one of these incidents was investigated by the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD), which found no violations.

Significant maintenance issues were reported in July 2019, including unsanitary sewage conditions (classified as an emergency), flooring problems, and a violation related to trash receptacles obstructing a fire drop ladder, though this was subsequently closed. The building's pest control record is remarkably clean, with no reported bedbug infestations in the past six years from 2019 through 2024, as evidenced by the annual bedbug reporting system showing zero affected units in all reporting periods. The building has faced rodent management challenges, particularly in 2022-2023, with two instances of rat activity documented in February and April 2023.

However, since then, the property has shown improvement in pest control efforts, passing several subsequent rodent inspections in 2023-2025. The Department of Buildings records show a permit for electrical work issued in 2018, though no significant recent construction or major systems upgrades are documented. While the building has its share of maintenance history, particularly concerning water leaks and rodent issues, recent inspections indicate improved conditions, with the most recent rodent inspections in early 2025 showing successful compliance.
