1922 Bergen Street, Brooklyn, NY 11233

1922 Bergen Street is a two-story, three-unit residential building located in Crown Heights, Brooklyn, currently owned by Michael Ervin and classified as a Class A building. The property, which dates back to 1901, has a concerning history of maintenance issues and violations. Most recently, in April 2024, the building received an open violation related to the failure to file an annual bedbug report as required by HPD regulations, marking the third consecutive year this issue has emerged (2022, 2023, and 2024).

The building has also experienced significant safety and maintenance concerns, including a November 2023 violation in Apartment 1 for water leaks in the kitchen ceiling, and multiple violations related to self-closing door requirements in various locations including the basement and building entrance. The property has an active Environmental Control Board (ECB) violation from November 2018 regarding improper gas water heater installation and flooding in the basement boiler room, with monetary penalties totaling $5,750. This incident followed a gas utility referral complaint in September 2018.

Additionally, several violations were documented in February 2019 for failure to certify corrections on immediately hazardous ECB violations. The building's external environment inspection history shows rodent infestation concerns in 2010, with failed inspections documented in July and September of that year. These persistent maintenance issues, particularly the recurring bedbug report violations and active ECB violations, suggest ongoing challenges with building management and maintenance compliance.
