1935 Bergen Street, Brooklyn, NY 11233

1935 Bergen Street is a 16-unit, 4-story New Law tenement building located in Crown Heights, built in 1910 and currently owned by Sinai Halberstam. The property has experienced recurring maintenance challenges, with the most recent issues centered around rodent problems, as evidenced by multiple 311 complaints in April 2025 and consistent rat activity noted during the Department of Health inspections from 2025. There have been several infrastructure and maintenance concerns in recent years, including heating system failures (noted in February 2025), electrical issues, and water leaks.

Notably, the building has multiple active violations regarding failure to file annual boiler low-pressure inspections between 2018 and 2021, which remain unresolved as of June 2023. The building's maintenance history reveals a pattern of building systems requiring attention, including multiple HPD violations related to heat/hot water, electrical systems, and pest control. In late 2024, several violations were documented in Apartment 5, including issues with mice infestation, flooring, paint, and various maintenance concerns, though these were later closed.

The property has also experienced recurring problems with the heating system, as evidenced by multiple emergency complaints in late 2024 and early 2025. While there have been no reported bedbug infestations in recent years (2021-2024), the building's ongoing rodent issues and heating system problems represent the most significant maintenance challenges affecting resident comfort and safety. Additionally, the building experienced multiple illegal conversion investigations between 2019 and 2024, with inspectors often unable to gain access for verification, though these complaints were ultimately closed.
