79 South 6th Street, Brooklyn, NY 11249
79 South 6th Street is a 3-story, 4-unit old law tenement building built in 1910 and currently owned by Mordechai Katz. The property has experienced recurring issues with plumbing and water supply systems, most recently documented in October 2024, with multiple emergency complaints though many of these were found not to violate housing laws. There were significant heat and hot water system problems in early 2024, including violations for inadequate heat and excessively hot water in Apartment 3.
The building has faced persistent mold issues, particularly affecting Apartment 3, with multiple complaints and violations in 2023-2024. Maintenance and building code compliance have been ongoing concerns, with several Environmental Control Board violations regarding illegal off-street parking and unauthorized driveway maintenance between 2022-2025, though records show these have been resolved. Recent technical issues are also apparent, with an October 2024 complaint regarding a fire escape lock in Apartment 4, though this violation situation seems to follow similar patterns of resolution through inspection.
The property has maintained a bedbug-free record since 2019, with no infestations reported in the past five reporting periods. Historical maintenance records from 2021-2023 show various apartment-specific violations being addressed, including plumbing, heating systems, and bathroom repairs in Apartment 3. The building underwent some permitted work in 2019, though details of the specific improvements were not provided in the available records.
