212 Crown Street, Brooklyn, NY 11225
The 35-unit residential building at 212 Crown Street in Crown Heights, owned by Ramon Delarosa, has experienced numerous maintenance and safety issues over the past few years. Most notably, in early 2025, there were multiple reports of unsanitary conditions including pests and mold, with several HPD inspection requests being unsuccessful due to access issues.
These were preceded by significant violations in December 2024 in Apartment 1C, including infestations of roaches and mice, visible mold conditions, and a defective carbon monoxide detector, though these violations were subsequently certified as corrected in early 2025. The building has a history of infrastructure concerns, including heating issues, door problems, and a boiler violation in 2020 that resulted in a $625 penalty. Recent complaints have shown a pattern of access issues for inspections, particularly regarding doors and unsanitary conditions, though some inspections did result in findings that did not violate housing laws.
Environmental Control Board violations from 2023-2025 indicate ongoing concerns with building systems and safety equipment, including issues with the vestibule doors and smoke detectors. While the building has passed several rodent inspections in recent years, there have been instances of rat activity noted in 2024 and 2025 inspections. The property has consistently reported zero bedbug infestations in its annual filings since 2019.
