221 5th Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11215
The five-story, 10-unit building at 221 5th Avenue in Park Slope, owned by Elizabeth Tupper, has a relatively clean record since its construction in 1920. The most notable recurring issue appears to be related to bedbug reporting compliance, with violations documented in 2021, 2023, and most recently in 2024, though these violations were strictly administrative in nature regarding the filing of annual bedbug reports under the Housing Maintenance Code.
Encouragingly, all three bedbug reports submitted for the most recent filing period (2023-2024) indicate zero infested units, zero eradicated units, and zero re-infested units, suggesting effective pest management practices despite the administrative violations. The building experienced two construction-related complaints in April 2021, both of which were investigated on April 29, 2021, and found to warrant no violations.
In terms of general building health indicators, a rodent inspection conducted in November 2018 resulted in a passing grade. The property has maintained relatively stable conditions over the past five years, with no reported safety or habitability concerns beyond the administrative bedbug reporting issues. The most recent bedbug report filed in May 2025 covers the period from November 2023 to October 2024, continuing the pattern of thorough documentation by the building management.
