158 5th Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11217

The four-story, nine-unit residential building at 158 5th Avenue in Park Slope, owned by Myriam Nachimovsky, has maintained a mixed record of maintenance and compliance since its 1920 construction. Most recently, in June 2024, there was a rodent-related complaint that was investigated and resolved with no violations found. However, the building has been subject to ongoing regulatory scrutiny regarding its annual external low-pressure inspections, with multiple active violations from 2018 through 2024 for failures to file required documentation.

The building experienced a significant heat and hot water outage in November 2018, though this was resolved quickly according to tenant reports. The property has also faced challenges with rodent control, particularly evident in late 2018 when bait was applied multiple times following confirmed rat activity. More recent rodent inspections have generally shown compliance, with the most recent in July 2024 passing inspection.

Bedbug reporting requirements appear to have been met consistently, with no reported infestations in the past three reporting periods from 2021 to 2023. An inspection in 2023 addressed plumbing concerns from late 2018, which resulted in a stop work order that was fully rescinded in November 2023. While the building has numerous historical violations and complaints on record, recent inspections suggest improved compliance with health and safety regulations, though the ongoing low-pressure inspection violations remain notable.
