1324 St Johns Place, Brooklyn, NY 11213
1324 St Johns Place is a 4-story, 8-unit residential tenement building located in Crown Heights and owned by Larry Hirschfield, dating back to 1908. The building has experienced multiple maintenance issues in recent years, with the most pressing concerns emerging in late 2024 and early 2025. Between December 2024 and May 2025, there were multiple service requests and inspections relating to heat/hot water (both apartments only complaints), appliance issues (refrigerator), electrical problems (outlet/switch), and various other maintenance concerns including water leaks, door/window issues, and unsanitary conditions involving pests.
Notably, violations were issued in December 2024 for apartment 4A concerning rodent infestation with roaches and mice, defected smoke detector and carbon monoxide device, broken washbasin, and cabinet problems. Apartment 3B had violations in November 2024 related to refrigerator door maintenance, door lock issues, fire escape concerns, and kitchen floor problems. The property's historical record shows some concerning mechanical system issues, particularly with the boiler system in 2020 when multiple complaints were filed regarding defective or inoperative equipment, leading to Department of Buildings violations.
Two specific Environmental Control Board violations from 2020 detailed problems with the Weil McLain hot water boiler, including corrosion and safety concerns, though these were ultimately resolved. The building has maintained a relatively clean record regarding bedbug reports, with only one reported infestation in 2021 which was eradicated, and more recent inspections showing no infestations from 2022 through 2024. Rodent inspections in 2021 and 2018 passed, though there was one failed inspection in 2014 for "other reasons." While the building has faced numerous maintenance issues, most recent inspections from late 2024 showed that many complaints did not violate housing laws, though there were exceptions for pest-related violations.
