1545 St Marks Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11233

1545 St. Marks Avenue is a 16-unit, 4-story New Law Tenement building located in Crown Heights, built in 1910 and currently owned by Alen Goldman. The building has experienced recurring heat and hot water issues, with three emergency complaints documented in late 2024 through early 2025, though HPD inspections found no violations in one case, and in another, they were unable to gain access for inspection.

Other notable maintenance issues include multiple water leak complaints (both slow and heavy flow) in 2023-2024, indoor air quality concerns including chemical vapors in May 2023, and unsanitary conditions involving pests in July 2023. The property has also faced plumbing and electrical issues, with multiple complaints regarding lighting and water system problems, particularly affecting the first-floor unit (1D) which had several documented violations in 2022-2023 relating to water leaks and bathroom fixtures. The building's maintenance history shows an ongoing battle with pest control, particularly in 1D and 2A, with open violations for roaches and mice infestation as of 2024.

Bedbug reports for the past three years (2022-2024) show a generally positive trend, with only one infested unit reported in 2021-2022, and recent filings indicating no active infestations. While the building has had multiple housing maintenance code violations, most have been addressed and closed, including significant repairs completed in October 2023. A concerning pattern of heating system issues persists, with multiple emergency complaints in 2024-2025. The building's historical data includes rodent inspections in 2010 (failed) and 2012 (passed), and a vibration complaint in 2020 which resulted in no violations being found.
