5612A 8th Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11220
The three-story, four-unit tenement building at 5612A 8th Avenue in Sunset Park, owned by Frank Lim, has experienced several notable issues over the past few years. Most concerning is the persistent pattern of Housing Maintenance Code violations related to bedbug reporting compliance, with open violations recorded annually from 2021 through 2024, indicating the owner has failed to file the required annual bedbug reports as mandated by HPD regulations.
Additionally, there is a recent active violation from September 2024 regarding the failure to file the 2023 External Low Pressure Inspection, which suggests potential safety concerns related to the building's pressure systems. The building has also had at least one heating emergency incident in late 2021, though this was resolved within a few days.
Prior to these recent issues, there was a complaint in 2018 regarding an illegal storefront sign or awning, which was eventually served as an Oath Violation in May 2022. While the building's age (built in 1932) and classification as a New Law Tenement are consistent with its history, the recent pattern of violations related to both bedbug reporting and pressure inspections raises questions about the owner's maintenance practices.
