148 St James Place, Brooklyn, NY 11238

This 17-unit, 4-story New Law Tenement building at 148 St James Place in Clinton Hill, owned by Robert Nelson, has experienced several maintenance issues in the past year (2024) that merit attention. Most notably, there are multiple open violations in Apartment 23 as of July 2024, including issues with fire escape windows, door locks, door hardware, leaky bathtub faucets, ceiling plaster, and electrical outlets. There have also been recurring issues with windows, with two 311 service requests in 2024 (May and July) regarding window frames, one of which resulted in violations.

Other maintenance concerns documented between March and May 2024 include problems with plumbing (including radiators and bathtubs/showers), mold, and various issues with walls, ceilings, floors, and the building's buzzer/intercom system. The building's history shows some persistent maintenance challenges, though there have been no reported bedbug infestations in the past seven years, with the most recent bedbug report (December 2024) noting zero infested units. A gas-related complaint in 2023 was investigated with no violations found.

Historical records from 2014 show multiple rodent baiting inspections, indicating past pest control efforts. The property has maintained regular bedbug and rodent reporting compliance for the past several years, with consistent declarations of no infestations in the bedbug reports dating back to 2018. Recent building management has shown some attention to addressing violations, as evidenced by several violations being marked as closed, though several open violations remain as of the current date.
