567 8th Street, Brooklyn, NY 11215

The 4-story, 8-unit residential building at 567 8th Street in Park Slope, owned by Erin Markman and constructed in 1909, has experienced several notable events in recent years that warrant attention. Most concerning is an ongoing Department of Health complaint from July 2023 regarding construction lead dust in common areas, which remains in progress as of July 2025. The building has faced multiple tenant safety violations in 2023-2024, including three separate instances of failing to properly distribute and post Tenant Protection Plan notices during construction work in July 2023, resulting in fines totaling $3,500.

There were also violations related to electrical work without proper permits, documented in July 2023, which carried penalties of $6,500. A significant building maintenance issue was raised in July 2023 regarding lead dust in common areas, currently still under investigation by the Department of Health. The building's history includes regular bedbug reporting compliance, with the most recent report (December 2023) showing zero infested units for the period of November 2022 to October 2023, following a similar pattern of zero infestations in the previous reporting period (2020-2021).

Housing Maintenance Code violations were issued in 2021-2023 for failure to file annual bedbug reports, though these appear to have been resolved. The property underwent some electrical work in 2019, for which permits were properly obtained. A recent violation regarding the failure to certify correction of an immediately hazardous condition from November 2023 was dismissed in July 2024, indicating some responsiveness to regulatory requirements.
