445 12th Street, Brooklyn, NY 11215

The 36-unit, 5-story residential building at 445 12th Street in South Slope, owned by Mary McKee, has experienced several notable maintenance and compliance issues in recent years. Most concerning is the active violation issued in September 2024 for failure to file the 2023 external low-pressure inspection, which remains open as of July 2025.

The building has a documented history of elevator-related problems, with two separate incidents recorded in 2023 and 2021, both resulting in "Oath Violation Served" penalties for the single device on property with no alternate service. A series of safety violations related to elevator and fire safety were documented in 2024 and 2023, including issues with fire signs, ADA compliance, inoperative lighting, and maintenance tags, though some of these were subsequently resolved. The property has maintained a clean record regarding bedbug infestations, with annual reports from 2019 through 2024 showing zero confirmed cases.

While there were two bedbug report violations noted in 2021 and 2022, these appear to be administrative in nature, as the building has consistently reported no infested units across multiple years. Historical permit records from late 2018 through early 2019 indicate routine maintenance activities were conducted under job numbers 340464125 and 321567256, though specific details of the work performed are not provided in the available data. The building's overall violation history suggests ongoing challenges with elevator safety and building systems maintenance, though the complete absence of bedbug infestations is a positive aspect of the property's management record.
