115 Park Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11205

The 4-story, 9-unit residential building at 115 Park Avenue in Fort Greene, constructed in 1915 and currently owned by Mayer Kaufman, has experienced several significant maintenance and safety events in recent years. Most recently, in June 2025, there was a rodent sighting that the Department of Health and Mental Hygiene attempted to investigate but couldn't access the property. In March 2024, there was a heat and hot water emergency that was reportedly resolved prior to inspection.

The building underwent construction work between 2020 and 2021, during which multiple safety violations were documented, including issues with fire extinguishers, scaffold safety, insulation installation, and pedestrian protection. These violations were ultimately resolved, though one from January 2021 regarding safety equipment measures carried a penalty of $2,500. The property has maintained a consistent record of bedbug prevention compliance, with no reported infestations in the past four filing periods from 2021 to 2024.

Historical inspections from 2010 and 2012 revealed various maintenance issues in apartments 1F and 2R, including problems with carbon monoxide detectors, gas supply, and interior plaster and paint conditions, all of which were subsequently resolved. The Department of Buildings issued multiple permits between 2020 and 2021 for various construction activities, with the most recent being a 2021 permit for alteration work. Recent building maintenance records suggest ongoing attention to safety compliance, though the recent rodent sighting indicates possible maintenance challenges.
