6623 13th Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11219

This two-family residential building at 6623 13th Avenue in Dyker Heights, owned by Frank De Santis, has experienced several notable events since its construction in 1910. The most significant recent issues involve multiple active violations for failure to file mandatory external low-pressure inspections dating back to 2018, with the most recent violations issued in September 2024.

In 2019, the property faced multiple complaints and violations related to unsafe scaffolding practices during exterior work, including unsupported scaffolds extending into pedestrian walkways and failing to meet safety code requirements, though these were eventually resolved with no penalties imposed. A proper permit was ultimately secured for the scaffolding work through permit number 321793975, issued in August 2018.

The building's bedbug reporting records from 2021 show no infestations, with all units reporting zero cases of infestation, eradication, or re-infestation during the 2019-2020 reporting period. While the building's age and recent inspection violations raise some concerns, it's worth noting that the recent bedbug reporting period was completely free of such issues, and the 2019 scaffolding violations were addressed through the proper channels, though the nature of the violations suggests there were some initial safety concerns during the work period. The failure to file external low-pressure inspections from 2018 through 2024, which remain active violations as of now, represents the most current compliance issue facing the property.
