Augrented Insights Report for 838 Park Place

838 Park Place is a 4-story, 8-unit New Law Tenement building in Crown Heights, constructed in 1903 and currently owned by Leigh Howard. The building has experienced several significant maintenance issues over the past few years, most notably involving mold problems in 2019, with multiple emergency complaints filed, particularly affecting apartments 1W and 4W. While some violations were resolved by 2021, including bathroom tile replacements and kitchen electrical repairs in apartment 1W, there remains an unresolved Class C violation from February 2019 concerning mold in the bathroom of apartment 4W.

The building currently has an active Department of Buildings violation from June 2023 regarding failure to file the 2018 External Low Pressure Inspection. Recent pest control data shows consistent monitoring for bedbugs, with no infestations reported in the past five years, maintaining a clean record in this regard. However, the building has faced ongoing rodent control challenges, particularly noted in 2024, with multiple inspections showing rat activity and required baiting between April 2024 and October 2024.

The most recent rodent inspection in May 2025 passed compliance, suggesting some improvement. The property has been actively managed through various permits and repair work, with a relevant external work permit issued in November 2022. The building's maintenance history indicates both persistent and recurring issues with both sanitation and pest control, though recent years have shown some improvements in certain areas.
