287 5th Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11215
287 5th Avenue is a 4-story, 3-unit New Law Tenement building constructed in 1920, currently owned by Jooiheong Yee. The building's records from 2021 through 2024 show persistent issues regarding bedbug reporting compliance, with four consecutive open Housing Maintenance Code violations from 2021 to 2024, all citing the failure to file required annual bedbug reports as mandated by HPD rules.
These violations represent a significant ongoing non-compliance issue related to building maintenance standards. The property has also experienced various quality-of-life incidents in recent years, with three documented Department of Health and Mental Hygiene (DOHMH) complaints.
These include two smoking violations (one in 2020 and another in 2023) and a food spoilage incident reported in July 2023, all of which were ultimately closed after investigation. While these DOHMH complaints were addressed and closed, they indicate some level of maintenance and health code enforcement activity at the property. The most recent building inspection from April 2024 shows the bedbug reporting violation remains unresolved, marking 2024 as the most recent active code compliance issue on record.
