1004 Montgomery Street, Brooklyn, NY 11213
The 6-story, 68-unit building at 1004 Montgomery Street in Crown Heights, built in 1928 and owned by Jay Gold, has experienced numerous maintenance and safety issues in recent years, with the most pressing concerns occurring in 2024-2025. A series of violations and repair needs were documented between November 2024 and February 2025, including problems with heating/hot water throughout the building, various paint/plaster issues on walls and ceilings, electrical lighting concerns, water leaks, and multiple door/window maintenance needs.
Two significant emergency violations were issued in late 2024 related to non-functioning carbon monoxide and smoke detectors, though these were later closed after inspections by the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD). The building has also faced persistent concerns with its elevator systems, as evidenced by multiple Department of Buildings (DOB) complaints regarding "Multiple Devices on Property" between 2022 and 2025. Recent inspections in 2025 revealed active elevator safety concerns including defective zone lock restrictors and brake pad issues, for which a penalty of $1,250 was imposed.
The building has a documented history of pest control challenges, particularly with rat activity, as shown in multiple inspections between 2024 and 2025, though the most recent inspection in July 2025 passed without issues. Apartment E7 has been the focus of specific violations related to lead-based paint hazards, plumbing issues, rodent infestation, and various maintenance problems identified during a November 2024 inspection. While there have been numerous HPD and Housing Maintenance Code complaints, many have been addressed through inspections and subsequent resolutions, though several open violations remain, particularly those related to apartment E7's condition as of 2024-2025.
