801 St Johns Place, Brooklyn, NY 11216
The 8-unit, 3-story New Law Tenement building at 801 St Johns Place in Crown Heights, owned by Albert Meisner, has experienced several notable maintenance issues over the past few years. Most recently, in June 2025, there were open complaints regarding an electric/gas range issue and a cooking gas problem, though the cooking gas complaint was marked as an emergency and closed shortly after. The building has faced recurring plumbing and water-related issues, with multiple heavy flow water leak complaints in 2023 (April and June) and various plumbing problems including sink issues.
During June 2023, several significant conditions were documented including mold, pest infestations, and appliance problems (specifically with refrigerators), though no violations were issued following HPD inspections. The property has a documented history of heat and hot water issues, with emergency complaints in December 2022 affecting the entire building, and a carbon monoxide detector violation in June 2022 that was subsequently closed. More recent housing maintenance code violations (2024) indicate an open issue regarding self-closing doors in apartment 2R, while previous violations from 2023 identified various maintenance needs in this same apartment including mold, bathroom repairs, and sink issues.
The building underwent rodent inspections in 2023-2024 with mixed results, including an initial rat activity finding in June 2023, though subsequent inspections resulted in passing grades. A bedbug report for the 2022-2023 period shows no infestations. The building's history includes one DOB violation from 2019 regarding annual boiler inspection filing, which was dismissed after the owner paid the associated penalty.
