260 5th Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11215

260 5th Avenue is a 4-story residential tenement building located in Park Slope, constructed in 1920 and currently owned by Mark Sullivan. The building, which contains 6 units, has experienced recurring heat and hot water issues, with complaints filed in December 2022 and November 2019, both of which were classified as emergencies and required intervention from the Department of Housing Preservation and Development.

In terms of maintenance violations, there are currently open citations from November 2019 affecting apartment 1R, pertaining to defective self-closing doors and leaky kitchen faucets, which remain unresolved as of the latest data in October 2023. The building's health and safety record shows a mixed picture.

There were two rodent-related incidents reported: one in March 2020 involving food establishment concerns (administratively closed) and another in July 2021, though both inspections passed without violations. Regular bedbug reporting between 2019 and 2024 indicates no infestations were found across all reporting periods, suggesting effective pest management practices. While the building has experienced some infrastructure issues, particularly with heating systems, the relatively prompt responses and inspections by relevant authorities indicate appropriate channels have been used to address problems as they arise.
