1809 St Johns Place, Brooklyn, NY 11233

This historic three-story, two-family home at 1809 St. Johns Place in Brownsville, built in 1899, is currently owned by Pinchas Halperin. The building has experienced a series of recurring infrastructure issues in recent years, particularly in 2024 and 2023, with multiple complaints regarding electrical systems, plumbing, and appliances.

Most notably, there are open violations as of September 2024 involving inadequate electric service and gas supply issues in Apartment 1, broken fixtures in various units, and previously issued violations for appliance problems that have persisted through multiple reporting periods. The building experienced significant electrical issues in 2024, including three power outages, and there were problems with heat and hot water documented in early 2024 that inspectors were unable to verify due to access issues. The property has a documented history of rodent inspections between 2016-2018, with some initial failures indicating rat activity or other issues, though subsequent inspections resulted in passing grades.

Between 2023 and 2024, there have been multiple complaints regarding various building systems requiring attention, including electrical outages, heating problems, and plumbing issues such as non-functioning toilets and sinks. While there is no recent bedbug activity reported (with the last documented period showing no infestations), the ongoing pattern of maintenance issues suggests persistent infrastructure challenges. The building's emergency response history shows that while many complaints are resolved, there are several open violations as of September 2024 that require attention, particularly regarding electrical systems and fixture maintenance.
