557 10th Street, Brooklyn, NY 11215

The three-unit brownstone at 557 10th Street in South Slope, owned by Patrick Jago, has a notable history of maintenance and compliance issues since 2022. Most concerning is an ongoing Department of Health complaint from December 2022 regarding construction lead dust entering an apartment, which remains marked "In Progress" as of October 2023.

The building has experienced multiple Housing Maintenance Code violations related to bedbug reporting requirements between 2021-2024, though the most recent report from April 2024 indicates no actual infestations were present during the 2022-2023 reporting period. The property has faced several regulatory challenges related to construction work and safety compliance. There were three complaints in late 2022 and early 2023 concerning unauthorized work in occupied multiple dwelling units, though inspections found no violations at the time.

A February 2023 Environmental Control Board violation resulted in a $400 penalty for unpermitted electrical work in the basement and units, though records indicate this was resolved. The most recent inspections in 2023 revealed no violations were warranted for complaints regarding site conditions and work contrary to stop work orders, suggesting improved compliance with building regulations. The building's systems and structure appear to be actively monitored, with regular inspections occurring approximately annually, though the ongoing lead dust complaint and history of unpermitted work raises concerns about construction oversight and resident safety.
