437 1st Street, Brooklyn, NY 11215
The four-story, 16-unit residential building at 437 1st Street in Park Slope, constructed in 1920, has a mixed record of maintenance and compliance regarding housing codes and safety requirements.
The most recent significant group of violations, dating back to 2008 (now certified as resolved in 2024), primarily affected apartment 2A and included issues with defective plaster surfaces and paint on ceilings in both general and bathroom areas, as well as concerns about missing safety devices such as smoke detectors and carbon monoxide detectors. A more recent outstanding violation from November 2019 indicates the building owner failed to file the required annual boiler inspection report for 2017, which remains active.
Historical records from 1987 show some serious structural concerns that were classified as Class A violations, including unauthorized alterations involving window removals and door installations with associated wooden stairs, though these violations are not currently listed as open. Fortunately, the building has maintained an excellent record regarding pest control, with no bedbug cases reported in the past seven consecutive annual filings between 2019 and 2025, and it passed a rodent inspection in February 2018.
