1452 Carroll Street, Brooklyn, NY 11213

1452 Carroll Street is a 4-story, 27-unit residential building in Crown Heights, built in 1921 and owned by Yaakov Blachman. The property has experienced several maintenance issues over recent years, with the most pressing concerns being water-related problems and pest control. In 2024, there were documented issues with pests leading to HPD violations, alongside paint and plaster work needed for walls and radiators. Earlier, from September 2023 to March 2024, multiple water leak complaints were recorded, some classified as emergency situations.

The building has also faced challenges with waste management, as evidenced by unsanitary garbage/recycling storage complaints in 2022, which resulted in some violations. Apartment 4A has more recent specific violations in 2024 regarding window guards and a roach infestation, though both were certified as corrected. The building's history shows recurring pest issues, particularly in 2020-2022, though there have been no reported bedbug infestations in the last three years (2021-2024). Compliance inspections for rodent activity show mixed results, with rodent bait applied in 2021-2022, but recent inspections in 2024 and 2025 have passed. The building also received a violation for not displaying energy efficiency information as required in 2021, though this appears to be the only active violation as of 2025.

The property has undergone multiple maintenance inspections between 2020-2025, all of which have generally resulted in compliance or correction of noted issues. Improvements were made to various apartments, including repairs to broken plaster surfaces and addressing mouse infestations in units 2B and 2E. While the building has experienced periodic maintenance challenges, particularly with water leaks and pests, recent years show improved compliance with most housing maintenance codes and regular rodent inspections passing. The most recent inspections and service requests indicate most issues have been addressed, though the active energy efficiency violation remains outstanding as of 2025. The building's record shows consistent attention to maintenance matters, with violations being addressed and corrected through proper channels, though not always promptly.
