209 Sullivan Place, Brooklyn, NY 11225
Situated in Crown Heights, 209 Sullivan Place is a 4-story, 38-unit New Law Tenement building constructed in 1924, currently owned by Stuart Gilman. The property has experienced a concerning pattern of maintenance issues in recent years, with particularly disturbing trends emerging in 2025. Multiple complaints from June 2025 regarding unsanitary conditions, including mold, lighting, plumbing, and ceiling problems were all marked with inspection attempts that resulted in no access being granted.
A slow water leak complaint from June is notably classified as an emergency, but was also marked as closed due to similar access issues. The building has a documented history of pest management challenges, with 2024 violations noting cockroach and mouse infestations in apartments 3D and A2 respectively, along with an emergency radiator plumbing issue. Safety concerns are highlighted by violations in 2024 involving missing smoke and carbon monoxide detectors in multiple apartments (A2, 3D, and B1), though these violations were ultimately certified as corrected. The building's maintenance history reveals recurring issues with essential services, including multiple 2025 complaints about the bathtub/shower, lighting, and ceiling conditions, as well as electrical and plumbing problems.
Earlier violations from 2024 required various repairs, including a bathtub replacement in apartment 3D. The property has undergone several rodent inspections between 2019 and 2025, with the most recent inspections in July 2025 noting rat activity, following a similar finding in February 2025. While the building is apparently free from bedbug infestations according to reports from 2019 through 2024, the persistent pattern of maintenance issues, particularly in 2025, raises significant concerns about the building's upkeep and tenant safety. The owner also faced a Department of Buildings violation for not displaying the energy efficiency score, though this was dismissed in July 2025.
