1701 Carroll Street, Brooklyn, NY 11213

The 2-story, 4-unit tenement building at 1701 Carroll Street in Crown Heights, owned by Ernest Bastein and built in 1923, has experienced several notable events in recent years. Most recently, in October 2023, there was a heat and hot water emergency reported by tenants, though HPD confirmed that service was restored shortly after their intervention.

The building has consistent violations related to bedbug reporting requirements between 2021 and 2024, with four separate violations issued between 2021 and 2024 regarding the failure to file annual bedbug reports under Housing Maintenance Code § HMC. However, the most recent bedbug filings from 2024-2025 show no infested units, indicating successful compliance with extermination protocols.

In terms of pest management, the property has maintained an impressive record with respect to rodent inspections, passing all inspections between 2014 and 2025, including the most recent inspection in February 2025. The building, classified as a "New Law Tenement," has generally demonstrated good maintenance standards, with a particularly strong track record in rodent control, though the bedbug reporting compliance issues during this period suggest some administrative oversight in this area. The recurring nature of the bedbug report violations appears to be more of an administrative nature rather than indicative of an ongoing infestation problem, as all subsequent reports show zero infested units and successful eradication efforts.
