1934 Bergen Street, Brooklyn, NY 11233

The three-story, three-unit residential building at 1934 Bergen Street in Crown Heights, owned by Carlos Varela, has experienced several significant maintenance issues between 2020 and 2023, with the most notable being a persistent rodent infestation problem. The building, constructed in 1901 and classified as "HERETOFORE CONVERTED CLASS A," underwent multiple inspections and received various violations related to rodent activity in 2021, including confirmed rat sightings and multiple failed compliance inspections leading to bait application in late 2021 and early 2022.

The property also faced several housing maintenance violations in 2021, particularly affecting Unit 1, which experienced issues with pests (including mice and roaches), broken flooring, defective cabinets, damaged ceilings requiring repair and repainting, and problems with an inoperative bathroom light fixture. Plumbing issues were documented in both 2020 and 2021, including water supply problems that warranted emergency attention. Since the early 2022 interventions, there appears to have been significant improvement in pest control, as evidenced by the building's bedbug reports from 2022-2024 indicating zero infested units, and a rodent inspection in April 2022 that passed.

The building currently holds no active violations in the Department of Buildings or Housing Preservation and Development systems as of the latest available data. Between 2019 and 2023, there were also investigations related to building permits in 2019 and 2021, though neither resulted in any violations being found during inspections. The property's historical records show a consistent pattern of maintenance issues between 2020 and 2021, particularly concerning pest control and various structural repairs, followed by an apparent period of improved conditions from 2022 onward, with no recent complaints or violations on record.
