566 Atlantic Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11217

The four-story, three-unit building at 566 Atlantic Avenue in Boerum Hill, owned by Mamun Alkarim, has had several notable maintenance and safety issues over the past few years, particularly concerning its heating system and regulatory compliance. Most recently, in early 2024, the building faced significant boiler system violations, including issues with chimney cleanout, low water cut-off, water feed line support, and combustion air termination, which resulted in an Environmental Control Board violation.

These boiler problems were documented through multiple inspections and a complaint that was resolved through an Oath Violation. The building has also had recurring issues with bedbug reporting compliance, with open violations noted in 2024 and previous years, though the most recent bedbug report from April 2023 indicated no infestations during the 2021-2022 reporting period.

The building's history shows generally good pest control practices, with all rodent inspections conducted between 2018 and 2019 resulting in passing grades, and no rodent-related violations on record. While the property has demonstrated compliance with bedbug eradication protocols when infestations were present, the recurring issues with timely bedbug report filing and the recent boiler problems raise some concerns about maintenance oversight. However, it's notable that many violations from prior years appear to have been addressed, with several being marked as "Closed" or "Resolved." The building's age (constructed in 1910) and conversion status as "HEREAFTER CONVERTED CLASS A" suggest it may have undergone some modifications from its original use, which could impact its systems and maintenance requirements.
