501 6th Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11215
The 4-story, 8-unit brownstone at 501 6th Avenue in South Slope, owned by John Carlson, has a notable history of maintenance compliance issues since 2020. Most concerning is an active pattern of violations regarding bedbug reporting requirements, with open violations recorded in 2024, 2023, and 2022, despite an apparently clean bedbug report filing for the period of 2019-2020 showing zero infested units.
The building has also failed to file multiple required external low-pressure inspections for the years 2020-2022, with violations issued in June 2023 that remain active. An earlier violation for failure to file the 2017 boiler inspection report from November 2019 is also still open.
On a more positive note, the building has recently passed a rodent inspection conducted in January 2024, suggesting that pest management in that area is currently under control. In terms of general building maintenance and safety, the most recent complaint on record was related to a food establishment letter grading issue in 2022, which was addressed and administratively closed by DOHMH. The persistent nature of both the bedbug reporting violations and the external inspection filing violations over multiple years suggests ongoing challenges with maintenance compliance, though the lack of new violations in the most recent reporting period could indicate some improvement in this regard.
