473 5th Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11215

The four-story, three-unit Old Law Tenement building at 473 5th Avenue in South Slope, owned by Nasser Elfgeeh, has a notable regulatory history spanning over a decade. Most recently, the building has maintained a consistent record of compliance with bedbug reporting requirements, with the 2024 report showing no infested units, following previous filings in 2021 and earlier demonstrating no infestation issues.

The property experienced some administrative challenges between 2022 and 2024, receiving three consecutive Housing Maintenance Code violations related to the failure to file annual bedbug reports, though these were subsequently addressed. In 2023, an external low-pressure inspection violation was issued and later dismissed within a month.

The building's rodent inspection history shows a significant improvement over time, with a rat activity issue recorded in July 2011 during two inspections that year, but subsequent inspections in November 2019 and August 2011 (compliance) both passed without issues. A permit for unspecified work was issued in May 2019 under job number 340549133. The building appears to have successfully resolved its earlier pest control challenges, with no recent infestations reported, and demonstrates improved regulatory compliance in recent years, though the repeated bedbug reporting violations indicate some lapses in administrative procedures.
