822 5th Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11232
822 5th Avenue is a three-story, six-unit old law tenement building located in Sunset Park, built in 1907 and currently owned by Penny Fried. The building has experienced recurring heat and hot water issues, with three documented complaints between 2020 and 2023, including a recent emergency complaint in November 2023. Multiple inspections in late 2020 revealed various maintenance issues, including concerns about flooring, windows, electrical wiring, and pest problems, with violations noted for unsanitary conditions related to pests.
A series of violations and maintenance issues were documented in 2020-2021, particularly affecting apartment 2R, including problems with safety systems (missing smoke and carbon monoxide detectors), a mold issue in the bathroom, and a bedroom layout concern related to ventilation. The building's management has maintained diligent bedbug reporting procedures, consistently showing zero infestation counts in the past five reporting periods from 2019 through 2025. Recent inspections in 2023-2024 indicated minor violations, including a missing heating system notice in the public hall and an annual bedbug report requirement.
A 2021 violation was noted regarding flower pots obstructing a fire escape at the third-story balcony. The property has undergone inspections for rodent issues, with mixed results - failing a June 2021 inspection but passing a subsequent August 2021 compliance check. While many past maintenance issues have been addressed, the recurring heat and hot water problems remain a notable concern, as evidenced by multiple emergency complaints and inspections.
