572 Atlantic Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11217
The four-story, three-unit residential building at 572 Atlantic Avenue in Boerum Hill, owned by Jack Cohen and constructed in 1910, has experienced several significant maintenance issues in recent years, particularly regarding heat and hot water systems. From October 2024 to February 2025, there were multiple heat and hot water-related complaints, with the most recent occurring in February 2025, though some of these complaints were resolved relatively quickly, typically within one to two days. The building has also faced ongoing pest management challenges, with inspections in 2023-2024 revealing a continued presence of cockroaches in at least one apartment (4R) and multiple pigeon waste complaints in 2023-2024 resulting in violations.
The property has several open violations from 2023-2024, including safety concerns such as missing smoke and carbon monoxide detectors in apartment 4R, a defective fire escape drop ladder, and issues with fire escape obstructions. Additional historical issues include a significant water leak problem documented in 2022 affecting apartment 2L, which resulted in multiple violations related to the leak and associated interior damage. The building's maintenance history shows regular inspections and some permit activity, including several permits issued in 2019 for electrical work.
The property has experienced rodent inspections with mixed results in 2023-2024, passing some compliance checks but failing others for unspecified reasons. While there were two complaints about illegal conversion of commercial space to dwelling units (one in 2019 and another in 2022), both investigations were inconclusive or resulted in no violations. The bedbug report for 2024-2025 shows zero affected units, indicating this particular pest issue has not been a recent concern.
