367 South 5th Street, Brooklyn, NY 11211

367 South 5th Street in Williamsburg is a 5-story, 31-unit residential building constructed in 1912 and currently owned by Lipa Gross. The property has experienced several significant issues in recent years, most notably a series of heat and hot water problems in March 2025 that required multiple HPD interventions, with violations issued for some of these incidents.

There were also concerns about ceiling conditions in 2025, with complaints filed in April and March that resulted in inspections but no violations. The building has had persistent maintenance issues, particularly affecting Apartment 2B, which has multiple open violations as of 2023-2024 related to smoke detector, carbon monoxide detector, and self-closing door issues, as well as problems with bathroom fixtures and surfaces. The building's history shows a pattern of maintenance challenges, including water-related problems, with a heavy flow leak reported in June 2025.

Earlier records from 2019 indicate concerns about building stability and gas line installation, resulting in multiple violations that were ultimately dismissed by the ECB. While rodent inspections show varying results from 2011-2019, recent bedbug reports from 2020-2024 have consistently shown zero infestations. The property has undergone various maintenance challenges over the years, with significant focus needed on addressing safety compliance issues such as smoke and carbon monoxide detector requirements, water-related problems, and building maintenance violations.
