405 8th Street, Brooklyn, NY 11215
The three-unit, three-story old law tenement building at 405 8th Street in Park Slope, owned by Johnathan Buckley, has experienced several significant maintenance issues over recent years. Most concerning are multiple open violations related to bedbug reporting requirements from 2021 through 2024, suggesting ongoing non-compliance with Housing Maintenance Code regulations.
In early 2023, serious safety violations emerged regarding unauthorized gas work in third-floor Apartment 3, including the installation of new gas piping and a gas valve for a stove without proper permits or inspections, resulting in substantial Environmental Control Board penalties totaling $40,530. This situation prompted immediate corrective action orders from the Department of Buildings due to the "imminent risk to public safety." The building has also faced pest control challenges, with multiple 311 service requests documenting rat sightings in 2021, including compliance inspections in July 2021 that confirmed rat activity.
While a 2022 gas utility referral was closed after inspections were conducted in January 2023, the most pressing current concerns remain the active violations relating to both bedbug reporting and 2023 gas safety issues. The property, constructed in 1899, is classified as an old law tenement building and has become subject to various regulatory requirements regarding pest control and safety inspections in recent years.
