1778 Bergen Street, Brooklyn, NY 11233
1778 Bergen Street is an 8-unit, three-story Old Law Tenement building located in Crown Heights and built in 1899, currently owned by 1778 Bergen Street Holdings LLC. The property has experienced several maintenance issues in recent years, with the most significant concerns being a water leak with heavy flow that was reported in January 2025 but remained unresolved after inspection attempts, and multiple door/window-related problems including both door and window frame issues. Between December 2024 and May 2025, there were multiple complaints regarding door/window conditions and appliance issues (specifically an electric/gas range), though most of these were closed without violations being issued following HPD inspections.
A concerning pattern of water-related problems is evident, with two separate water leak complaints recorded in January 2024 and January 2025. The building's maintenance history shows attention to compliance with safety regulations, as evidenced by the resolution of multiple Housing Maintenance Code violations identified during a October 2023 inspection. These violations included requirements for posting proper notices regarding smoke detector requirements, gas leak procedures, carbon monoxide detecting device requirements, and maintaining the certificate of inspection visits.
Additionally, the boiler room was required to be cleaned and disinfected after the presence of dried sewage was noted. The property has consistently passed rodent inspections between 2017 and 2019, and in more recent years (2021-2024), there have been no reported bedbug infestations, with the most recent bedbug report from December 2024 showing zero infested units. While the building has had several maintenance issues, there is evidence of regular inspections and attempts to address violations, though some recent complaints regarding access for inspections remain unresolved as of mid-2025.
