812 St Johns Place, Brooklyn, NY 11216
812 St Johns Place is a five-story, five-unit residential building located in Crown Heights, Brooklyn, and owned by Joe Fried. The 1915 structure has faced several recurring maintenance issues over the past decade, with the most recent concerns emerging in 2024 involving inaccessible inspections regarding ceiling and wall paint/plaster conditions. A verified heat/hot water issue was resolved in December 2022.
The building has maintained an active bedbug management record, with no reported infestations or eradications in the past five years, as confirmed by the most recent filing in June 2025 showing zero infested units. The property has experienced multiple infrastructure and safety-related violations, particularly notable between 2013-2014 when several serious issues were documented in the second-floor apartment, including problems with fire egress, electrical wiring, and hot water temperature. While these violations were addressed and certified as corrected by December 2020, they reflect a period of significant maintenance challenges.
More recent records show regular rodent inspections, with the most recent three inspections in 2023-2025 passing without issues, though there were several instances of rat activity requiring bait application in 2018. The building's 311 service requests and Housing Maintenance Code complaints, primarily regarding paint and plaster issues in 2024, indicate ongoing surface maintenance needs. Despite these historical challenges, recent inspections have shown improvement in various areas, including the most recent rodent inspections passing and bedbug reports confirming no active infestations. The property has undergone several permitted works since 2018, including electrical, plumbing, and architectural modifications, suggesting ongoing maintenance and improvement efforts by the ownership.
