1840 Prospect Place, Brooklyn, NY 11233

1840 Prospect Place is a three-story, three-unit residential building located in Crown Heights, Brooklyn, owned by Five Star Island Corp and constructed in 1899. The building's maintenance history reveals a pattern of bedbug reporting violations, with the most recent ongoing violation recorded in April 2024, continuing a documented cycle since 2021 where annual bedbug reports were not filed as required under the Housing Maintenance Code.

While the bedbug reporting for the 2021-2022 period shows no infestation (with zero infested, eradicated, and re-infested units), the persistent documentation of violations suggests compliance challenges. The property has experienced other maintenance issues, including a gas utility referral complaint in January 2024, though this was marked as closed with the inspector unable to gain access during the second final attempt in February 2024.

Historical records from 2016-2017 indicate a significant rodent issue, with multiple bait applications and documented rat activity during the winter of 2016, though there are no recent rodent concerns on record. The building was constructed under the New Law Tenement classification, which typically suggests it includes certain requirements for amenities and safety features mandated for older buildings in New York City. While the property has some historical documentation regarding maintenance violations, there have been no recorded complaints or violations indicating immediate safety concerns in recent years (2023-2025), with the most pressing issues appearing to be related to administrative compliance rather than active pest or utility problems.
