1228 St Marks Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11213
This three-story, three-unit Old Law Tenement building located at 1228 St. Marks Avenue in Crown Heights has experienced several significant maintenance and compliance issues over the past few years. Most concerning are the two open violations related to bedbug reporting requirements, first issued in 2021 and 2022, and an open violation regarding defective self-closing doors at the building entrance noted in April 2022.
The building has also faced recurring rodent issues, with official inspections in March 2022 confirming rat activity, following an earlier rodent sighting complaint in the same month. Multiple housing maintenance code violations were documented in April 2022, including problems with garbage/recycling storage, and several violations were issued regarding building safety requirements, though many were subsequently closed, including requirements for proper notices about housing guides and gas leak procedures. Earlier records show some additional maintenance challenges, including plumbing issues in 2018 (though no violations were found upon inspection) and a 2019 ECB violation related to unauthorized construction work.
The building's rodent inspection history shows mixed results, with compliance achieved in late 2019 after previous failures. Between 2021 and 2024, there has been a notable pattern of open violations related to bedbug reporting requirements, suggesting ongoing challenges with compliance to basic housing maintenance code requirements. While some violations have been addressed and closed, the presence of multiple open violations as of 2024 indicates some persistent regulatory challenges for the property.
