576 6th Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11215

576 6th Avenue is a 5-unit, 4-story Old Law Tenement building constructed in 1931 and currently owned by Jasi Navarro in the South Slope neighborhood. The building has experienced several significant incidents over the past few years, most notably during a 2020-2021 construction period that resulted in substantial concerns about structural integrity.

In December 2020, the building received an Environmental Control Board violation for failing to safeguard persons and property during construction, with reported cracking of 1/4" in width allowing dust and debris into adjacent properties. This led to multiple Department of Buildings violations in 2021 regarding inadequate structural repairs and fire separation requirements, though these were ultimately dismissed in August 2022 following compliance actions and the issuance of new repair permits.

The building has maintained an active record of bedbug reporting requirements under the Housing Maintenance Code, with violations recorded in 2021, 2022, and 2023 for failing to file annual bedbug reports, though these violations were later closed. The property has also experienced various maintenance and safety inspection issues, including problems with front entrance lighting (2019), multiple "Failure to Maintain" violations in 2021, and complaints about building shaking and work without proper permits. Most recently, the 2024 bedbug report covering the period from November 2022 to October 2023 indicates zero cases of infestation or re-infestation, suggesting improved compliance with pest management requirements.
