Augrented Insights Report for 1389 Sterling Place

The 43-unit, 5-story building at 1389 Sterling Place in Crown Heights, owned by Michael Roth, has experienced several significant maintenance issues in recent years. Most notably, between May and June 2025, there were multiple plumbing and flooring complaints, including issues with bathtubs/showers and floors that resulted in violations being issued by HPD.

The building had documented water-related problems, with November 2024 violations noting active water leaks affecting both unit B4 (kitchen) and common areas, along with various ceiling and plaster issues. Maintenance records from 2025 show continuing concerns with flooring and plumbing systems.

The building's maintenance history includes a bedbug infestation in 2023-2024 in one unit (B4) and some historical pest issues, though the most recent inspections in 2025 have shown rat activity, indicating ongoing vermin control challenges. A structural vibration complaint was recorded in May 2022, and while there was a roofing violation regarding missing flashing in 2022, this was resolved. The property has undergone multiple HPD inspections between 2020 and 2025, revealing a pattern of maintenance issues primarily related to water damage, pest control, and flooring concerns, with varying levels of compliance and violation resolution.
