1892 Bergen Street, Brooklyn, NY 11233

The two-story, three-unit converted dwelling at 1892 Bergen Street in Crown Heights, owned by Joe Lee, has experienced several notable maintenance issues over the past few years. Most recently, in July 2023, there was a rodent-related complaint that passed inspection by the Department of Health and Mental Hygiene. Between 2021 and 2022, the building faced multiple plumbing and water leak complaints, with violations issued in December 2021 for heavy flow water leaks affecting the first-floor apartment.

Other recurring issues during this period included problems with toilet plumbing, pests, and multiple instances of water leaks. In 2020, the building was cited for various safety notice violations, including requirements to post information about carbon monoxide detectors, smoke detector requirements, and emergency procedures for suspected gas leaks, though these were subsequently certified as corrected in January 2021. The property has maintained an active bedbug reporting history from 2019 through 2025, consistently showing zero cases of infestation during each annual reporting period.

A significant environmental control board violation was recorded in March 2018 regarding the removal of a posted vacate order, which carried a $5,000 penalty. Most recently, inspections in 2023 and 2022 indicated general property upkeep, with the 2023 rodent inspection resulting in a passing grade. While the building has experienced numerous maintenance issues, many have been addressed through inspections and corrections, and there have been no documented bedbug infestations in recent years.
