8106 5th Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11209

The two-family house at 8106 5th Avenue in Bay Ridge, owned by Sabastiano Piccininni, was built in 1921 and has documented several significant maintenance issues, especially during 2019. The most concerning cluster of incidents occurred in April 2019, when multiple emergency complaints were filed regarding water leaks, fire escape safety, and various door-related problems.

These complaints led to the issuance of several violations, including problems with the building's fire escape and door structures. Additional violations documented in 2019-2020 include missing balusters on the third-story public hall stairs, roof maintenance issues affecting both a third-story apartment and the public hall, and several unit-specific problems in Apartment 2 such as a defective bathroom sink cabinet, mold conditions, and a cockroach infestation that required remediation under the Housing Maintenance Code.

As of the latest available data, there are multiple open violations remaining from this period, including issues with roof leaks affecting both the apartment and public areas, door security hardware problems, and various maintenance needs throughout the building. While there was a successful rodent inspection in 2012, the more recent history suggests ongoing maintenance challenges. The building's documented history shows a pattern of maintenance and safety-related issues during 2019, particularly impacting the third-floor areas, though it is worth noting that recent inspection data up to October 2023 is not available to assess any progress or resolution of these longstanding violations.
