1 Monroe Street, Brooklyn, NY 11238

1 Monroe Street is a two-story, three-unit residential building constructed in 1998 and currently owned by Khrystyna Chorna. The property has experienced several significant maintenance issues over the past five years, with the most notable concerns being pest control and safety violations.

In 2022, multiple pest-related complaints were filed, including documented rat sightings and an unsanitary condition complaint in May, which led to housing maintenance violations being issued. While recent rodent inspections from 2023-2025 show passing results, there remains an open violation requiring the building to file annual bedbug reports with HPD, as evidenced by violations recorded in both 2023 and 2024. The building has faced various other maintenance challenges, including a significant heat and hot water complaint filed in October 2018, though inspectors were unable to access the property to verify the conditions.

More recently, in May 2022, multiple violations were documented regarding self-closing doors, including those at the building entrance and leading to the rear yard, and a specific mouse infestation in Apartment 1, which has since been closed. Two sprinkler system-related violations from 2022 regarding required equipment remain open, while a carbon monoxide detection notice violation from the same year also remains unresolved. The property has maintained regular rodent inspections, with passed results from 2022 through 2025, though there were periods of documented rat activity in 2022 that suggest previous infestations.
