1515 St Johns Place, Brooklyn, NY 11213
1515 St. Johns Place is a 4-story, 20-unit New Law Tenement building constructed in 1914, currently owned by Laquasia Thomas and located in Crown Heights, Brooklyn. The building has experienced numerous maintenance issues in recent years, with the most significant cluster of complaints occurring in May 2025, when eight service requests were generated simultaneously, including issues with cabinets, doors, plumbing, gas, flooring, and pest control.
Of particular concern is the building's elevator system, which has been the subject of multiple complaints between 2018 and 2023, with the most recent violations from January 2024 related to fire safety equipment and emergency systems, carrying a penalty of $6,250. The elevator has shown persistent problems with emergency phone systems, door safety features, and various operational defects, leading to multiple environmental control board violations throughout 2018-2024. The building's maintenance history reveals ongoing infrastructure challenges, including heating system violations in December 2024 affecting apartment 1B, and multiple open violations from December 2024 affecting apartment 4D related to kitchen plumbing, gas supply, and various repair needs.
While the building has had periodic pest issues in the past, recent bedbug reports from 2024 indicate no current infestations. However, there have been multiple rodent activity reports in 2023-2024, showing persistent challenges with vermin control. The building's management has generally responded to violations and complaints through inspections and repairs, though there are several active violations related to elevator safety and building maintenance requirements that remain unresolved as of the most recent inspection dates. The property has also had active violations for failing to submit required external low pressure inspection records in 2023.
