1179 51st Street, Brooklyn, NY 11219
The four-story, 14-unit tenement building at 1179 51st Street in Borough Park, owned by David Teichman, has experienced several notable issues over recent years, particularly regarding water supply and plumbing systems. Most recently, in March 2023, there were multiple reports of water supply problems that constituted immediate emergencies; while these complaints were eventually closed, one was noted to be a duplicate of another tenant's report about a building-wide condition.
The building has demonstrated good pest management practices, with bedbug reports consistently showing zero infested units from 2020 through 2024, including the most recent December 2024 filing for the period ending October 31, 2025. An annual bedbug report violation was issued in April 2021, but this appears to have been resolved through subsequent filings showing no infestations.
The building's permit history shows activity in late 2018 through early 2019, with several permits issued under job number 322058009 for various work including plumbing and electrical modifications. A Department of Buildings complaint from July 2018 was investigated in September 2018 and determined to have no warranted violations. Looking further back, the building has maintained a relatively clean violation record over the past several years, with no significant safety concerns or resident experience issues reported in recent timeframes.
