5624 4th Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11220

The 7-unit, 4-story tenement building at 5624 4th Avenue in Sunset Park, built in 1902 and currently owned by Jennifer Wang, has had several notable incidents and maintenance issues over the past several years. Most concerning was a cluster of violations in early 2019 related to Apartment 2R, including mold issues (which were upgraded to Class C status), peeling paint, window guard problems, and a defective smoke detector, though these were all subsequently closed. The building has shown a pattern of annual bedbug reporting violations from 2022 through 2024, with documented violations in 2021, 2022, and 2023 indicating non-compliance with filing requirements, though recent reports indicate no infested units or eradication efforts needed.

More recently, there was a plumbing-related complaint in 2019 regarding a toilet issue that was investigated but no violations were found. An external low-pressure inspection violation from June 2023 remains active as of this report date. The building's maintenance history shows some recurring issues that have required attention, including a food poisoning complaint in late 2018 that led to a Department of Health investigation.

The most recent complaint in April 2023 regarding standing water was closed due to an address verification issue. The property has maintained compliance with bedbug eradication measures when infestations have occurred, as evidenced by consistent reporting showing no infestation in recent years. While the building has had its share of violations and complaints, many have been resolved through appropriate channels, though the active violation regarding the 2018 external low-pressure inspection filing remains outstanding as of 2025.
