2041 Pacific Street, Brooklyn, NY 11233

The 48-unit, 4-story tenement building at 2041 Pacific Street in Crown Heights, owned by Kerry Kramer and constructed in 1910, has experienced a series of maintenance and safety issues throughout 2025. Most notably, there are six active violations from 2023 related to failures to file mandatory External Low-Pressure Inspections between 2018 and 2023. The building has faced recurring plumbing issues, with multiple complaints regarding toilets (April 2025, May 2025) and bathtub/shower problems (April 2025), though investigators were often unable to gain access for verification.

There have also been recurring heat and hot water complaints, with HPD responding to issues in March and May 2025, though systems appeared to be restored upon inspection. The property has ongoing concerns about rodent activity, with several rat sighting complaints filed in April 2025. Recent safety issues include a window guard problem reported in June 2025, while plumbing issues continue to be a challenge, as evidenced by multiple service requests.

A construction lead dust complaint from April 2025 remains active as of June 2025. Importantly, the building underwent a tenant safety inspection in March 2025, which was conducted effectively, and there have been no bedbug infestations reported in the most recent filing period of 2023-2024. The combined history of these complaints suggests persistent maintenance challenges, particularly related to plumbing systems, while the lack of bedbug and serious pest complaints in recent months could indicate some improvements in building conditions.
