889 5th Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11232
889 5th Avenue is a 4-story, 12-unit residential building constructed in 1924 in Sunset Park, currently owned by Stamatios Mamounas. The building has experienced recurring heating system issues over the past several years, with building-wide heat and hot water complaints recorded in 2025, 2024, and 2023, though inspectors were unable to gain access in each instance to verify the conditions.
Between January and September 2024, there was one non-emergency complaint about unsanitary garbage/recycling storage conditions, and a critical inspection in June 2021 revealed multiple safety issues in apartment 10, including missing smoke and carbon monoxide detectors, though these violations were subsequently certified as corrected. The building has had a history of pest management challenges, as indicated by two documented bedbug incidents in 2020-2021 and 2021-2022, though recent filings from 2022 to 2024 show zero infested units.
Plumbing systems have required attention, with a water supply complaint in December 2019 that was resolved without violations. Recent rodent inspections show mixed results, with a failed initial inspection in May 2025 followed by a passing compliance inspection in June 2025. The property's maintenance history, particularly regarding essential services like heat and water, suggests ongoing infrastructure challenges, while safety systems violations in 2021 highlight past concerns about resident safety equipment compliance.
