6124 5th Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11220
The 4-story, 6-unit tenement building at 6124 5th Avenue in Sunset Park, owned by Yan Qing Dong, has experienced several significant maintenance and safety issues in recent years, particularly between 2023 and 2025. Most notably, between late 2024 and early 2025, there were multiple complaints and violations related to basic services including plumbing and heat/hot water problems, with inspectors frequently unable to gain access to investigate properly.
The building experienced a power outage in February 2024 that resulted in an electrical violation, and there were multiple safety-related incidents in late 2023 involving concerns about carbon monoxide detectors, smoke detectors, and fire escapes. The building's fourth-floor apartment (4R) appeared to be particularly affected by maintenance issues, with several violations in 2023-2024 regarding safety systems including carbon monoxide detectors, smoke detectors, and window guards. Previous years show a pattern of infrastructure challenges, including electrical wiring concerns in 2018 and multiple egress-related violations in 2020-2022.
The Department of Buildings issued multiple violations in 2022 regarding the building's cellar conditions and occupancy use, leading to monetary penalties. While there have been periodic heating and hot water issues reported through 311 complaints, it's worth noting that the building's bedbug report filings from 2021 through 2025 show consistent records of zero infested units. The most recent bedbug report from February 2025 indicates no infestations during the 2023-2024 reporting period.
