1275 St Johns Place, Brooklyn, NY 11213
The 6-unit, 3-story New Law tenement at 1275 St Johns Place in Crown Heights, built in 1906 and currently owned by Cuthbert Clarke, has experienced several significant maintenance issues over the past several years. The building has faced recurring pest problems, most notably with rodents, as evidenced by multiple 311 service requests between 2018-2021, including two complaints in April 2021 that resulted in inspections showing violations. The property underwent several inspections in 2018 that revealed various unsanitary conditions, including mold, pest infestations, and issues with doors/windows, leading to multiple Housing Maintenance Code violations.
A particularly concerning cluster of violations was documented in December 2018 for Apartment 1R, including problems with lead-based paint hazards, broken plaster surfaces, and paint deterioration in multiple rooms and the kitchen. Recent records indicate improvements in pest management, with the most recent bedbug reporting from 2025 showing no infestation cases between 2023-2024, and previous filings dating back to 2019 also showing zero infested or re-infested units. The building's maintenance history shows some progress, including passing rodent inspections in 2021.
There were also violations related to annual boiler inspection report filing in 2019, though this violation was ultimately dismissed in 2021. The property has maintained compliance with bedbug reporting requirements in recent years, with four consecutive filings showing no infestation cases between 2020-2025. The most recent documented rodent inspections from 2021 show improved conditions, with a passing result in May 2021 following previous bait applications in early 2018.
