1939 Park Place, Brooklyn, NY 11233
1939 Park Place is a 45-unit, 4-story New Law Tenement building constructed in 1910, currently owned by Claudette Henry and located in Brownsville. The building has experienced numerous maintenance issues in recent years, with the most significant cluster of problems occurring between January and March 2025, including plumbing issues (basin/sink), appliance problems (electric/gas range), and door maintenance concerns, all of which resulted in housing violations. A major housing inspection in December 2024 revealed multiple open violations in Apartment 2J, including issues with carbon monoxide detectors, smoke detectors, bathroom ceiling paint, pest infestation (roaches), and various cabinet and fixture problems.
The building has also faced concerns about rodent activity, with six baiting incidents recorded between April 2023 and November 2024, though recent compliance inspections have passed. While there were earlier concerns about wall stability (February 2023) and several housing maintenance code complaints and violations throughout 2024-2025, the building has demonstrated some progress with recent pest control measures. The property has maintained a clean record regarding bedbug infestations, with no reported cases since 2019.
Historical records show a previous plumbing issue with the radiator in June 2025 and various general maintenance requests. Department of Buildings violations from 2019 regarding technical report filings were ultimately dismissed, and a 2019-2020 emergency exit sign issue was noted but appears resolved. While the building's maintenance record shows ongoing challenges, particularly with plumbing, doors, and general upkeep, there have been no documented instances of systematic bedbug problems, and recent inspections have shown some responsiveness to rodent control measures.
