12 St Charles Place, Brooklyn, NY 11216

The three-story, three-unit residential building at 12 St Charles Place in Crown Heights, owned by Tyler Hercules, was constructed in 1931 and is classified as a heretofore converted Class A building. The property has experienced recurring administrative issues related to bedbug reporting compliance between 2021 and 2024, with four separate violations issued for failing to submit the required annual bedbug reports, though subsequent filings indicate no actual infestations occurred during those periods.

Most recently, in 2024, the building faced significant infrastructure challenges when a storm drainage issue was identified, resulting in an Environmental Control Board violation with a $655 penalty for improper water drainage, including observations of a clogged roof leader and broken/rotten downspout connections. Despite these compliance and maintenance issues, the building has demonstrated generally sound maintenance in other areas.

The most recent rodent inspections conducted in 2023, 2024, and 2025 all resulted in passing grades, indicating effective pest management in this regard. The property's bedbug reporting compliance appears to have been rectified as of 2024, with the most recent reports indicating no affected units during the specified filing periods from 2022-2023 and 2021-2022. While the building has a history of regulatory violations, recent inspections and filings suggest improved compliance with reporting requirements and pest management protocols, though the active drainage violation from 2024 remains a notable infrastructure concern.
