665 Pennsylvania Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11207

665 Pennsylvania Avenue is a 3-story, 5-unit New Law Tenement building located in East New York, constructed in 1926 and currently owned by Michael Strachan. The property has undergone several inspections and maintenance requirements in recent years, with the most significant cluster of violations occurring in 2023. During inspections in June and July 2023, issues were identified related to fire safety and self-closing doors, including a defective self-closing door at the building entrance, an illegal sliding bolt at the 3rd-story bulkhead door, and obstructed fire escape windows in the 3rd-floor apartment (3F).

The building was also found to be lacking proper safety notices regarding carbon monoxide detectors and gas leak procedures during the same inspection period. However, all these violations were certified as corrected between July and August 2023. The building's maintenance record shows consistent attention to bedbug reporting requirements, with no reported infestations in any of the annual filings from 2020 through 2025.

The property has maintained a clean record in terms of rodent inspections, passing the only two such inspections on record (2011 and 2012). While the 2023 violations represented a concerning pattern of safety-related issues, it's worth noting that these were promptly addressed and corrected, and there have been no similar violations reported since mid-2023. The most recent bedbug report from May 2025 shows zero infested units for the 2023-2024 period, continuing the building's streak of successful pest management.
