5224 8th Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11220
The 7-unit, 4-story New Law Tenement building at 5224 8th Avenue in Sunset Park, owned by Eric Lee, has experienced several notable incidents and regulatory interactions since 2018. Most significantly, the building received two Oath Violations in early 2025 related to Special Operations Compliance Inspection and Local Law Audits, though the specific nature of these violations is not detailed in the records.
There were also violations issued and subsequently dismissed in 2023 regarding the failure to file 2019 and 2020 External Low Pressure Inspections. The property has maintained a clean record regarding bedbug infestations, with official reports from 2019 through 2024 consistently showing zero infested, eradicated, or re-infested dwelling units.
The building has faced several Department of Health and Mental Hygiene (DOHMH) complaints regarding food establishment issues between 2019 and 2021, including reports of contaminated food and pest problems, though these were either addressed or determined to be isolated incidents. A Housing Maintenance Code violation was issued in 2022 regarding the filing of the annual bedbug report, and there is an active complaint from 2018 regarding an illegal storefront sign that was related to a 2019 sign moratorium. The only building permit on record for the past five years was issued in October 2019 for work with job number 321999735, though the specific nature of this work is not detailed in the records.
