315 South 5Th Street, Brooklyn, NY 11211
The three-story, four-unit residential building at 315 South 5th Street in Williamsburg, owned by Gabriel Dorfman and constructed in 1915, has experienced several notable issues in recent years. Most concerning is the pattern of unresolved bedbug reporting violations, with active citations for failing to file annual bedbug reports in 2022, 2023, and 2024, showing a chronic compliance issue with HPD requirements.
The building has also faced recurring rodent problems, with multiple rat activity reports and bait applications documented between 2012 and 2018, though the last recorded rat inspection in December 2018 passed. There have been several complaints regarding potential safety and compliance issues, including three instances in 2018-2020 where inspectors were unable to gain access to investigate complaints about unauthorized work, and a complaint in 2022 about illegal hotel rooms that was closed with no violation found.
The building's permit history shows multiple legitimate permits issued between 2018-2020 for various work, including plumbing (PL) and alteration (AL) projects, though the nature of these works is not detailed in the provided data. The most recent bedbug-related documentation from December 2020 reported no infested units during the 2019-2020 reporting period, suggesting this issue was briefly addressed at that time, though subsequent violations indicate non-compliance with reporting requirements.
