454 3rd Street, Brooklyn, NY 11215

The 4-story, 8-unit residential building at 454 3rd Street in Park Slope, owned by Melvin Goldberg, has experienced several notable issues in recent years. Most recently, in June 2025, there were complaints about ceiling paint/plaster damage that resulted in violations requiring the owner to make repairs.

The building has a consistent history of not filing annual bedbug reports in accordance with HPD regulations, with violations recorded in 2022, 2023, and 2024. Between 2021 and 2022, there were two instances where inspectors were unable to gain access for Local Law 188/17 compliance inspections, though subsequent tenant safety inspections in 2021 showed no violations warranting further action.

Despite the bedbug reporting violations, the building's recent filings from 2022 to 2025 indicate zero instances of infestation, eradication, or re-infestation during the specified reporting periods, suggesting effective pest management since 2020. In terms of building improvements, two work permits were issued in March-May 2021 for exterior work (EW), though the specific nature of these improvements is not detailed in the records. While the building has had multiple violations and compliance issues in recent years, the absence of infestation reports and the closure of various violation cases indicate some level of ongoing maintenance and compliance efforts by the property owner.
