1896 Pacific Street, Brooklyn, NY 11233
1896 Pacific Street is a 3-story, 6-unit residential building located in Crown Heights, constructed in 1910 and currently owned by Neil Rickenbacker. The building has experienced recurring maintenance issues in recent months, with a particular focus on plumbing and heating systems. Between October and November 2024, there were multiple complaints regarding heat/hot water issues (including a building-wide outage in November 2024), plumbing problems affecting bathtubs/showers, and water leaks, with several violations being issued.
Specifically, Apartment 3L has documented violations from October 2024 requiring repairs to plastered surfaces, bathroom fixtures, and roof leaks, while Apartment 2L has open violations from August 2024 relating to water leaks and bathroom repairs. The building's infrastructure has been under scrutiny, with multiple HPD inspections in 2024 showing both access issues for inspectors and the issuance of violations. The property has maintained an active record of addressing pest management, filing bedbug reports consistently from 2021 to 2023, with no confirmed infestations reported in any unit during this period.
Rodent inspections from 2018 to 2019 show a mix of results, with some initial failures followed by subsequent passing inspections. The building's compliance with housing maintenance codes has been mixed, with violations remaining open as of October 2023 regarding proper notice postings in the entrance area. While some repairs have been certified as completed, particularly those from October 2024, the recent pattern of maintenance issues suggests ongoing challenges with building systems and infrastructure. The property was previously cited in 2021 for tampering with posted notices, though this complaint was referred to HPD and subsequently closed.
