Augrented Insights Report for 1591 Sterling Place

The three-story, 10-unit tenement building at 1591 Sterling Place in Crown Heights, owned by Joel Weinberger and constructed in 1927, has experienced several recurring maintenance issues, particularly concerning doors and security. Most recently in 2024, there were multiple emergency complaints regarding door conditions, with one violation issued in June 2024 for defective self-closing doors in apartment 3B. The building has had consistent problems with door maintenance, with violations and service requests documented throughout 2022-2024.

Safety concerns have also been noted, including a broken window guard violation in April 2024. The building's heating and hot water systems have experienced outages, as documented in emergency complaints in December 2021 and October 2021, though services were reported restored during HPD's follow-up inspections. Significant historical issues include several violations regarding illegal door hardware documented in 2019-2020, and multiple emergency complaints in May 2020 related to construction work contrary to stop work orders during the COVID-19 period.

The building has a somewhat troubling history with pest control, though recent bedbug reports for 2023-2024 show no infestations, and previous infestations were reported as eradicated. Rodent inspections in 2017-2018 indicated rat activity and other sanitation concerns, particularly regarding yard maintenance, as evidenced by multiple ECB violations for inadequate housekeeping documented between 2019-2020. The property is currently in compliance with bedbug reporting requirements, having maintained a zero infestation count for the past three years through 2024.
