8315 5th Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11209

The two-family residence at 8315 5th Avenue in Bay Ridge, owned by Helen Chalbis, is a three-story building constructed in 1921. Over the past three years, there have been several notable incidents recorded in city databases.

In January 2022, there was a complaint regarding a face covering violation related to an un-enforced mandate, though the specifics of this incident and its resolution are unclear from the 311 report. More recently, in December 2023, there was a complaint about an inadequate or illegal fence at the property, but a subsequent inspection on January 16, 2024, found no violations warranting action. The most significant issue occurred in September 2024, when a violation was issued for failure to file the required 2023 external low pressure inspection report.

This violation was eventually dismissed on November 25, 2024, following appropriate documentation or corrections through the CIANOW CRM system. The building's violation history suggests some lapses in maintenance and regulatory compliance, particularly regarding safety inspections, though the relatively quick resolution of these issues indicates responsiveness to regulatory requirements when brought to attention. The property has maintained its two-family configuration throughout its documented history, typical of its building class designation.
