212 Highland Place, Brooklyn, NY 11208
212 Highland Place is a two-story, 4-unit New Law tenement building in Cypress Hills, built in 1905 and currently owned by Omid Mashieh. The building has experienced recurring maintenance challenges over the past several years, with recent issues including a rodent sighting in March 2025 (investigated and passed inspection), an electrical power outage in June 2023 (also inspected with no violations found), and multiple rodent-related complaints in 2019. Significant maintenance code violations were documented in 2024, including concerns about fire egress, missing window guards in apartment 2L, and defective self-closing doors, while a 2023 inspection noted visible mold conditions in the basement.
The building's history reveals persistent electrical and pest management challenges, with multiple emergency complaints about power outages and unsanitary conditions related to pests between 2018-2023. A cluster of violations was recorded in 2019 related to tenant protection requirements during construction work, though these were ultimately resolved. The property has undergone various inspections, with most recent rodent inspections in 2025 showing compliance.
Historical data shows the building passing multiple rodent inspections from 2010 to 2024, though it experienced "Rat Activity" in both 2018 and 2019. The building's maintenance history also includes several housing maintenance code violations related to door closures, hot water temperature issues (noted as exceeding 130 degrees in 2024), and various electrical system concerns. Notably, there have been no reported bedbug infestations in recent years, with the most recent reports for 2023-2024 showing zero infested units.
