149 7th Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11215

The four-story, two-family house at 149 7th Avenue in Park Slope, owned by Kumhwie Cho, has been in operation since 1899 and has experienced several notable maintenance and regulatory events over recent years. Most concerning are three active violations as of October 2023 related to the building's failure to file the required 2018 External Low Pressure Inspection, and a historical violation for not submitting the 2017 boiler inspection report.

In June 2023, the Department of Buildings issued violations for multiple inspection failures, though four subsequent violations from that month were later dismissed between October 2023. The building has maintained some positive records, including passing a rodent inspection in January 2018, and has shown no evidence of bedbug infestations in the 2019-2020 reporting period. A sanitation-related complaint regarding garbage and recycling storage was reported in late 2018 but resulted in no violations after investigation.

A smoking violation was recorded in early 2020 and was addressed accordingly. A permit for exterior work was issued in August 2019. While the building has experienced various violations and service requests, many have been resolved or dismissed, though the current active violation related to the 2018 Low Pressure Inspection remains notable.
