1054 Park Place, Brooklyn, NY 11213
The 15-unit, 4-story tenement building at 1054 Park Place in Crown Heights, owned by Abraham Oberlander and constructed in 1908, has experienced a series of concerning maintenance issues in recent years. Most notably, from 2023 to 2025, there were multiple complaints and violations related to unsanitary conditions, including persistent rodent activity, with eight instances of bait application recorded between December 2024 and May 2025. Three separate HPD complaints in April 2025 regarding pests, garbage storage, and door issues were closed due to lack of access for inspection.
The building has also faced significant plumbing and water issues, with violations documented in 2025 related to basins, sinks, and flooding conditions. A cluster of problems emerged in late 2024, particularly in apartment 2A, including mold, a heavy water leak, and various maintenance issues with walls, flooring, and fixtures, resulting in multiple Housing Maintenance Code violations. The property's boiler system has been a recurring concern, with several complaints between 2020 and 2022 regarding defects and missing permits, leading to multiple Environmental Control Board violations.
Two active violations from 2020 and 2022 describe serious boiler issues including corrosion, exposed wires, and holes in ceilings, with a penalty of $625 imposed. The building's maintenance history shows some improvements, as there have been no bedbug infestations reported in the past three years, though rodent control remains an ongoing challenge. Recent inspections as of May 2025 have consistently revealed rat activity, indicating persistent pest control issues. The property currently has active DOB violations from 2023 related to failure to file required low-pressure inspections from 2018 and 2020.
