446 15th Street, Brooklyn, NY 11215

The 4-story, 8-unit tenement building at 446 15th Street in South Slope, owned by Jenelle Lenoir and constructed in 1906, has experienced several significant structural issues over the past five years. Between 2019 and 2020, multiple violations were documented regarding the building's exterior walls, with inspectors noting concerning conditions including cracks, movement in brickwork, and problems with window keystone headers. Specifically, violations were recorded in November 2019, January 2020, and August 2020, with associated penalties totaling $12,625.

The building underwent three consecutive CSE sweeps in early 2021, though no violations were found in these inspections. A complaint regarding building stability was made in July 2019, resulting in an Oath violation being served. More recently, in 2023, the Department of Health conducted rodent inspections that passed, though one initial inspection in January 2021 noted rat activity.

Bedbug reporting shows consistent monitoring from 2019 through 2024, with no infestations reported in any of the annual filings. The building has had two housing maintenance violations related to bedbug reporting requirements in 2021 and standing water concerns in 2022, though no violations were found in the latter inspection. The most recent Department of Buildings inspection in May 2025 regarding unauthorized work in occupied premises found no violations warranting concern. The property appears to be current on bedbug reporting requirements as evidenced by the most recent December 2024 filing showing zero infested or eradicated units.
