1328 Sterling Place, Brooklyn, NY 11213

1328 Sterling Place is a 6-unit, 3-story residential building located in Crown Heights, Brooklyn, constructed in 1907 and currently owned by Giovanni Tafuri. The building has undergone several inspections and faced various compliance requirements over the past several years, with a notable pattern of violations related to safety and maintenance notifications.

In 2019, multiple violations were recorded (now resolved) concerning the posting of mandatory safety notices, including those related to carbon monoxide detectors, bedbug reporting, and building registration information. A significant violation from 2019 involving a defective entrance door locking assembly (Class C) was particularly concerning from a security perspective. More recently, the building has faced some challenges with air quality during construction work, as evidenced by a February 2024 Department of Health and Mental Hygiene complaint regarding dust from construction, which required intervention by city authorities.

The property has maintained a consistent record of compliance with bedbug reporting requirements, with the most recent filings from 2023-2024 showing zero infested or eradicated units, suggesting effective management of this common urban pest issue. A concerning active complaint regarding "Failure to Maintain" was entered in June 2025, though as of the end of June 2025, it was still awaiting follow-up inspection and further research. While the building appears to have resolved most of its historical violations, and has passed recent rodent inspections (2018), the property has experienced periodic issues related to maintenance and safety compliance that warrant monitoring.
