646 Eastern Parkway, Brooklyn, NY 11213

646 Eastern Parkway is a two-family house located in Crown Heights, Brooklyn, built in 1901 and owned by Ted Zucker. The building has experienced recurring issues with access for inspections, most notably in 2019 and most recently in October 2024, when both heat/hot water and plumbing/water supply complaints resulted in HPD's inability to gain access for inspection.

These complaints were classified as emergency situations. The Department of Buildings records show three instances in 2023-2024 where inspectors couldn't gain access to the building regarding permit-related matters, though one complaint from June 2024 about a damaged safety net/guard rail found no violations at the time of inspection. Between March 2020 and April 2020, there were two complaints about illegal after-hours work, but inspections yielded no violations.

The building appears to be maintaining structural integrity, as evidenced by passing rodent inspections annually from 2012 through 2025, with the most recent inspections in March 2025 and February 2024 showing compliant conditions. The recurring theme of inaccessible inspections, particularly concerning emergency situations, is notable, though most other complaints have been resolved without resulting violations. The building's age and history suggest typical urban residential challenges, though the regular passing of rodent inspections indicates active management in this regard.
