176 5th Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11217
176 Fifth Avenue is a 4-story, 6-unit old law tenement building constructed in 1920, currently owned by Daniel Krasow. The property has experienced recurring issues with bedbug reporting requirements, receiving open violations in 2022, 2023, and 2024 related to the failure to file annual bedbug reports, though these appear to be administrative in nature rather than indicative of current infestations.
The building's boiler system has become a significant concern, with active violations as of September 2024 noting multiple safety issues including missing wire covers, incorrect discharge pipes, safety valve problems, and ventilation concerns, resulting in fines totaling $1,250. Between 2018 and 2024, the building underwent several inspections, passing all rodent inspections conducted between March 2018 and December 2021, and most recently in September 2024, there was a boiler-related enforcement action, though no residential units were directly implicated in these violations.
Historical complaints from 2021 indicate concerns about egress and unpermitted work, but inspectors were unable to gain access during two final attempts to verify these issues. The property has maintained a relatively stable condition through regular inspections, with the most pressing current concerns centered around boiler safety and compliance with bedbug reporting requirements.
