1062 Park Place, Brooklyn, NY 11213
The 4-unit, 4-story New Law Tenement building at 1062 Park Place in Crown Heights, owned by Ethelston Barker and constructed in 1909, has experienced several significant maintenance and compliance issues in recent years. Most notably, there has been an ongoing rodent infestation problem, with multiple inspections from September 2024 through April 2025 showing consistent rat activity, though inspections in April 2025 indicate compliance with rodent control measures.
The building has also faced multiple housing maintenance code violations, particularly evident in February 2024, including failures to maintain proper safety signage, fire safety requirements, and maintenance of common areas, especially on the 1st and 4th stories. A concerning heat and hot water outage affecting the entire building was reported and temporarily resolved in February 2024. The property has active violations related to building safety and maintenance requirements, including an open violation as of April 2024 regarding the annual bedbug report.
Historical records show the building has faced issues with unauthorized modifications to curb cut and driveway access, particularly noted in 2020 and 2022, resulting in violations being served to the owner. While some of these violations were eventually resolved, there remain active ECB violations related to these modifications, including improper construction of parking facilities and related signage requirements. The building's maintenance history shows a combination of persistent rodent control issues, safety violations, and unauthorized modifications, with the most recent being a rodent-related health violation recorded in August 2024 requiring follow-up inspections.
