6701 5th Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11220
The 31-unit, 4-story building at 6701 5th Avenue in Bay Ridge, built in 1925 and currently owned by 6701 5TH AVENUE REALTY LLC, has experienced persistent maintenance challenges throughout 2024 and into 2025. Most notably, there have been ongoing pest control issues, with multiple rodent-related complaints and inspections showing consistent rat activity, including three inspections in 2025 alone indicating the presence of rats. The building has also faced recurring heat and hot water problems, with multiple complaints in March 2025 regarding these essential services, though inspections confirmed restoration of service during responses.
More recently, in June 2025, several serious safety concerns were documented through emergency complaints, including issues with doors/windows, fire escape safety, and carbon monoxide detectors. The building's maintenance record reveals both recent and historical violations that raise safety concerns. Active violations from 2023 indicate failure to file required external low-pressure inspections from 2018-2021.
Specific unit 2F has documented violations from December 2024, including issues with hot water temperature, and missing smoke and carbon monoxide detectors. Previous inspections have noted various safety violations, including visible mold in the bathroom, problems with self-closing doors, and obstructions in public hallways. While the building has maintained a consistent record of zero bedbug infestations since 2019, the ongoing rodent issues and recent safety violations suggest persistent maintenance challenges that management is required to address according to housing regulations.
