363 5th Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11215

The four-story, six-unit residential building at 363 5th Avenue in Park Slope, owned by Abraham Sharabi and constructed in 1920, has exhibited several concerning patterns in recent months. Most notably, between March and May 2025, there were five documented instances of smoking or vaping in smoke-free areas, all of which required intervention from the NYC Health Department.

The building also experienced a water supply-related plumbing issue in March 2023 that was designated as emergency during the Housing Maintenance Code Complaints process, though inspectors could not gain access to verify the problem. Additionally, two construction-related complaints were filed in June 2025 regarding work without permits and construction contrary to approved plans, though inspections found no violations.

The property has maintained a clean record regarding bedbug infestations, with all nine annual bedbug reports from 2019 through 2025 indicating zero infested or re-infested units, as well as zero units requiring eradication. The building's food safety compliance came into question in late 2021, when a complaint was filed regarding food worker hygiene and vaccine mandate non-compliance, though these issues were marked as addressed. Historical data from 2019 showed successful rodent inspections, passing two inspections conducted in November of that year.
