5302 16th Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11204
The property at 5302 16th Avenue in Borough Park is a 4-story, 6-unit New Law tenement built in 1931, currently owned by Sol Dresdner. The building has experienced ongoing regulatory challenges, particularly in the area of building safety and maintenance. As of early 2025, there are several active violations regarding the failure to file required annual bedbug reports from 2021 through 2024, and multiple violations related to the building's external low pressure inspection filings for 2018-2023, with some penalties still outstanding.
In July 2022, the building underwent significant scrutiny after complaints about structural concerns, resulting in several Environmental Control Board violations including issues with a collapsed parapet wall, hazardous stairwell conditions, and concerns about unauthorized modifications including converted religious bathing areas. While some of these violations were dismissed or resolved, as indicated by various follow-up dates through 2023-2024, there remain active violations related to building maintenance and safety. The building's inspection history shows a pattern of non-compliance with safety regulations, particularly regarding roof and parapet conditions, as well as bedbug reporting requirements.
The 2022 violations alone carried significant penalties, including $1,250 fines for several infractions related to building maintenance and occupancy contrary to certificate records. More recently, as of 2024, there are multiple open violations related to the failure to file external low pressure inspections, suggesting ongoing maintenance oversight issues. The building's history from 2021 to present indicates persistent challenges in meeting housing maintenance code requirements, with particular attention needed to the building's exterior safety systems and reporting compliance.
