1429 Sterling Place, Brooklyn, NY 11213

The two-family house at 1429 Sterling Place in Crown Heights, owned by Christopher Bramwell, has experienced recurring maintenance issues between 2021 and 2023, with a particular focus on unsanitary conditions. Most notably, there have been three separate complaints regarding sewage problems (April 2023, March 2023, and December 2022) that required HPD intervention, though they were unable to gain access to inspect the reported conditions.

Additionally, there was a door-related issue reported in September 2022 that also resulted in an emergency response from HPD. The property has had two documented indoor air quality concerns, one involving sewage odor in December 2022 and another relating to chemical vapors in May 2021, both of which resulted in advisories to the owner for remediation.

On a positive note, 1429 Sterling Place appears to have maintained a bedbug-free status, with all eight bedbug reports from 2019 through 2025 showing no instances of infestation, eradication, or re-infestation in either unit. The most recent bedbug filing period (2024-2025) and all previous filings confirm that neither of the two units has experienced bedbug issues during the documented timeframe. While the building has experienced several maintenance challenges, particularly relating to sewage issues and door functionality, the consistent absence of bedbug problems represents one area of stable building condition.
