501 5th Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11215

This 6-story, single-unit Old Law Tenement building at 501 5th Avenue in South Slope, owned by Sal Radoncic and constructed in 1920, has a documented history of several violations and required inspections over recent years. Most notably, there was a Housing Maintenance Code violation in April 2021 regarding the failure to file an annual bedbug report, though this appears to have been resolved as subsequent filings consistently showed zero infested units from 2019 through 2024.

The Department of Buildings (DOB) violation records show three violations from 2019-2021, with one concerning failure to perform a Category 5 inspection in May 2019, which was dismissed in October 2021. The building experienced two Environmental Control Board (ECB) violations in December 2018 requiring repairs to emergency phone systems and basement floor position indicators, resulting in a penalty of $312, though this was eventually resolved.

Recent bedbug reporting, covering the period from November 2022 through October 2024, indicates no infestations or related issues, suggesting successful management of this previously concerning issue. The building's violation history shows no active violations as of the most recent records, though the property has undergone periodic inspections and required corrective actions in the past. The most pressing historical issues appear to be resolved, and the building has maintained compliance with bedbug reporting requirements for the past two years, with no reported infestations during this period.
