588 6th Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11215
The four-story, seven-unit tenement building at 588 Sixth Avenue in South Slope, owned by Agnes Brown and constructed in 1931, has a concerning pattern of unresolved maintenance issues and regulatory violations spanning multiple years. Most notably, there are open violations dating back to 2021 regarding the failure to file annual bedbug reports, with the most recent citation occurring in April 2024.
The building has also accumulated six active Department of Buildings (DOB) violations between April 2022 and September 2024, all related to the failure to file required external low-pressure inspection reports for consecutive years (2018-2023). Additionally, there is a historical violation from November 2019 concerning an unfiled 2017 boiler inspection report.
A complaint regarding illegal commercial/manufacturing use in a residential zone was recorded in November 2019, but this was marked closed by February 2020 when the inspector was unable to gain access for verification. While the building's age and character as an "OLD LAW TENEMENT" structure are consistent with its 1931 construction, the persistent pattern of non-compliance with inspection and reporting requirements raises significant concerns about the property's maintenance oversight and regulatory adherence.
