200 Crown Street, Brooklyn, NY 11225

200 Crown Street in Crown Heights is a 4-story New Law tenement building owned by Nixon Frederick, containing 8 residential units and constructed in 1921. The property has a documented history of heating and hot water issues, particularly notable in the winter months of 2018 and 2019, with multiple emergency complaints filed through the Housing Maintenance Code (HMC) regarding inadequate heat and hot water supply.

A significant cluster of violations occurred between 2018 and 2024 related to bedbug reporting requirements, with four consecutive violations between 2021 and 2024 each referencing the need to file annual bedbug reports under HMC regulations. In 2018, three C-class violations were recorded specifically for apartment 1S, concerning inadequate heat and hot water supply, as well as access issues to the building's heating system. The building has maintained a passing record for rodent inspections over the past several years, with successful inspections conducted in 2022, 2023, and early 2025.

The most recent bedbug reporting period from 2022-2023 indicates zero infested units, with no units requiring eradication or experiencing re-infestation, suggesting improvements in pest management. While the building has faced recurring heating and hot water issues historically, particularly during winter months, the most recent violations primarily relate to administrative compliance regarding bedbug reporting rather than immediate resident concerns. The property's maintenance record shows periods of both significant maintenance challenges and improvements, particularly in recent years with better compliance on pest control reporting and rodent inspections.
