5907 17th Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11204

The three-story building at 5907 17th Avenue in Borough Park, currently owned by Sholem Kestenbaum, has experienced several notable events regarding pest management and building maintenance over recent years. Most concerning is the building's history with rodents, particularly evident from the 2019 inspections where initial assessments failed but subsequent compliance inspections passed. The Department of Health received a rodent complaint in late 2019 that was closed, though no specific resolution was noted.

The property has demonstrated consistent compliance with bedbug reporting requirements from 2021 through 2024, with all filings indicating zero infested units, and no recorded violations related to bedbug reporting since these regular inspections began. In terms of building compliance and inspections, there have been three "CSE: Sweep" complaints in recent years (2022-2024) that were investigated but found to have no violations warranting further action. There was one initial notification accepted in November 2022 regarding full demolition notification.

The building has also shown attention to maintenance requirements, with a Housing Maintenance Code violation in 2021 and 2022 regarding the filing of annual bedbug reports, though these violations appear to have been resolved. A demolition permit was issued in October 2022, suggesting significant construction activities were planned or initiated at that time. While the building has experienced some pest management challenges in the past, the current absence of recorded violations and regular compliance with reporting requirements suggests improved management of these issues in recent years.
