1259 52nd Street, Brooklyn, NY 11219
1259 52nd Street is a 3-story, 5-unit residential building located in Borough Park, constructed in 1899 and currently owned by Jack Zimmer. The building has experienced several compliance issues over the past few years, with the most significant being multiple active Department of Buildings violations in 2023 related to failure to file external low pressure inspections for 2018, 2019, and 2020.
These violations, dated between June 20-30, 2023, remain unresolved as of the current date. The building also had a historical violation related to an unfiled 2017 boiler inspection from November 2019, which was dismissed in June 2022.
Regarding pest management, the property has maintained a clean record since 2020, with all five annual bedbug reports from 2020 through 2024 showing zero infested dwelling units, zero eradicated units, and zero re-infested units. The building had two unsuccessful rodent inspections in June 2010, followed by one passed inspection in September 2016, suggesting some historical pest control challenges that appear to have been resolved in recent years. While the bedbug reporting compliance has been exemplary since 2020, the current active violations related to low pressure inspections warrant attention, as these could potentially impact residents' safety and comfort.
