155 4th Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11217

155 4th Avenue is a three-story, two-family residential building located in Park Slope, Brooklyn. Built in 1920 and currently owned by Imran Tahir, the property has experienced notable maintenance challenges over the past decade, particularly concerning its elevator systems and pest control compliance.

Most concerning are two active Department of Buildings violations from 2019 - one unspecified violation and another related to the failure to file a required Category 1 elevator inspection from 2017, which remains unresolved as of July 2025. The building's rodent inspection history reveals a period of significant infestation issues between 2011 and 2018, with multiple failed inspections and documented rat activity during 2011, though inspections conducted in 2018-2019 showed successful compliance and passing results, suggesting efforts to address this previous infestation problem.

The property has generally maintained passing rodent inspection results in recent years, with the most recent inspections in 2019 showing improved conditions, though the 2018-2019 period had several initial inspections resulting in failures for unspecified "Other Reasons." The building's violation and inspection history suggests a pattern of maintenance challenges, particularly during 2011-2019, with specific attention needed to address the outstanding elevator safety compliance issues from 2019. While the most recent rodent inspections indicate improved conditions, the building's historical inspection record shows recurring pest control challenges prior to 2018. The most recent building violations and elevator inspection issues from 2019, now over five years old, remain the only active violations on record, though their disposition status shows no resolution as of the current date.
