825 Crown Street, Brooklyn, NY 11213
825 Crown Street is a 6-story, 55-unit residential building in Crown Heights, Brooklyn, built in 1928 and currently owned by Shmaya Glick. The property has experienced recurring heat and hot water issues in 2025, with multiple complaints filed between January and February 2025, affecting both individual apartments and the entire building. These issues resulted in several HPD inspections, some of which led to violations being issued. In June 2025, multiple housing maintenance code complaints were filed, including issues with pests, paint/plaster, window frames, radiators, appliances, sinks, and flooring.
Notably, Apartment B3 has several open violations from December 2024, including conditions related to pest infestations (cockroaches and mice), defective doors, and bathroom maintenance issues. The building has a documented history of elevator and egress concerns, with multiple complaints regarding the single-device elevator system between 2018 and 2024, though most of these were ultimately closed with no violations found upon inspection. There have been two significant egress violations, one in 2021 relating to a blocked exit and another in 2018. The elevator system has been the subject of various environmental control board violations, including issues with missing zone lock restrictors and other mechanical concerns.
The building’s rodent inspection history shows mixed results, with several passed inspections since 2019, though there were some failed inspections noted in 2018 and 2022. While there was a bedbug reporting requirement for the period from November 2021 to October 2022, the report showed no infestation, eradication, or re-infestation records for any dwelling units during that time. The property also has several active and recently dismissed DOB violations, including an active violation from 2023 regarding a missed 2018 external low-pressure inspection and a 2021 violation related to failure to certify corrections on an immediately hazardous ECB violation. Historical violations related to garbage collection and building maintenance requirements were recorded in late 2024, with three open violations remaining as of 2025.
