392 8th Street, Brooklyn, NY 11215

The 8-unit, 4-story tenement building at 392 8th Street in Park Slope, owned by Jacob Silberfarb, has experienced several maintenance issues over recent years, with the most significant concerns occurring in 2022-2023. As of March 2023, there are open Class C violations regarding defective self-closing doors at both the building entrance and bulkhead on the 4th story, which could impact security and safety.

The building has also faced challenges in meeting various Housing Maintenance Code (HMC) requirements, evidenced by Class B and A violations in 2023 for door-related issues and the need for an annual bedbug report. The property has demonstrated compliance with several important safety requirements between 2022-2023, including the posting of carbon monoxide detector requirements and other safety notices, though there remained an open Class C violation related to door repairs in apartment 4R as of October 2022.

Notably, the building's bedbug reporting history from 2020 to 2025 shows no infestations, with the most recent 2025 report indicating 0 infested, 0 eradicated, and 0 re-infested units. The building has also undergone recent compliance inspections under Local Law 188/17 in early 2024, with no violations found at that time, suggesting improved maintenance oversight. While the property has had multiple violations, the recent inspection results and consistent bedbug-free status indicate positive maintenance practices in certain areas, though the open door-related violations suggest ongoing attention is needed to fully rectify all outstanding issues.
