4612 5th Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11220

The 4-story, 6-unit tenement building at 4612 5th Avenue in Sunset Park, currently owned by Eduardo Silva, has experienced several notable events regarding its maintenance and inspection history since 2020. Most recently, in September 2024, the building received a violation from the Department of Buildings for failing to file the 2023 external low pressure inspection report, which remains active as of July 2025.

The building's bedbug reporting history shows consistent compliance from 2021 through early 2025, with reports indicating zero infested units in the most recent filings (January 2025) and only two infested units in the 2020-2021 reporting period, which were reportedly eradicated with no re-infestations. The building has undergone both rat activity and compliance inspections regarding rodent conditions in 2022, passing the compliance inspection in March 2022 following an initial finding of rat activity in February 2022.

Notably, there were two housing maintenance code violations recorded in 2021 and 2022 regarding the failure to file annual bedbug reports, though these violations were subsequently closed. While the building has experienced some maintenance issues, particularly with the external low pressure inspection filing, the regular bedbug reporting and successful eradication of infestations, along with the passing of rodent inspections, suggest that the building management has generally maintained basic compliance with health and safety requirements, though attention to timely filing of required inspections appears to be an ongoing concern.
