1049 Sterling Place, Brooklyn, NY 11213
1049 Sterling Place is a 16-unit, 4-story New Law Tenement building constructed in 1912, currently owned by Samuel Lang. The property has experienced a range of maintenance issues in recent months, with multiple Housing Maintenance Code violations issued in December 2024, particularly affecting Apartment 10, including problems with plaster/paint surfaces, bathtub waste line, and intercom systems.
Previous violations from October 2024 indicated issues with plumbing (bathtub/shower and toilet), as well as pest infestations in October 2024 affecting multiple units. The building has a history of water and pest-related problems, with violations for roaches and mice in Apartment 9 documented in October 2024, and earlier plumbing issues continuing into December 2024. The Department of Buildings records reveal multiple complaints about work without proper permits throughout late 2022 and early 2023, though most were closed without substantiation or due to access issues.
An ECB violation from January 2023 noted blocked fire escape pathways, resulting in a $1,250 penalty. The property has maintained a zero-infested dwelling status for bedbugs across the most recent reporting periods (2021-2024), and rodent inspections have shown recent passing results in 2023 and 2024, though there were multiple failed inspections for other reasons between 2010-2017. Additionally, the building has two active violations related to annual inspection filings for 2017 and 2018, though the specific nature of these violations is not detailed in the provided data.
