4920 5th Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11220
The three-story, four-unit building at 4920 5th Avenue in Sunset Park, owned by Anastasios Stavropoulos, has experienced several significant maintenance and safety issues in recent years. Most notably, in April 2024, five separate apartments (2L, 2R, 3L, 3R) were cited with Class C violations for fire damage, with an additional violation regarding missing glass panes at the skylight.
As of July 2025, there are currently four active Department of Buildings violations related to missed External Low Pressure Inspections for the years 2020-2023, indicating potential safety equipment maintenance lapses. The building has also struggled with compliance regarding bedbug reporting, receiving four consecutive Class A violations from 2021-2024 for failing to file the required annual reports.
A 2019 Class B violation remains open concerning inadequate exterior lighting at the front entrance, which was required to meet minimum brightness standards from sunset to sunrise. While the building has passed rodent inspections in 2012, 2017, and most recently in January 2024, these recent maintenance and safety violations suggest ongoing challenges with building upkeep and regulatory compliance.
