# 538 5th Avenue, Park Slope, Brooklyn, NY 11215 BBL 3010410040 · Block 1041 · Lot 40 · BIN 3023671 Canonical page: https://nycpropertyfacts.com/ny/brooklyn/538-5th-avenue-3010410040 Last updated: 2026-11-09 · Open-item counts as of 2026-11-09 ## Summary 538 5th Avenue (Brooklyn, NY 11215; tax lot BBL 3010410040) is a 5-unit mixed-use building with apartments and ground-floor commercial space (building class S5: mixed-use: five- or six-family home with one store or office), built around 1925, on a 2,447 sq ft lot zoned C4-3A. City tax records list the owner as 538 FIFTH AVENUE LLC. The Department of Finance's final market value for tax year 2027 is $2,527,000. As of November 9, 2026, NYC Open Data shows no open DOB jobs, no active DOB, DOB NOW safety or ECB violations and no open HPD violations for this lot, but it does show two OATH tickets with an unpaid balance. An unpaid OATH ticket is a fine the city says is still owed. It is counted separately from violations, so this lot has no open violations but is not free of outstanding items. There were four 311 requests in the past 12 months and no HPD complaints since 2019. (Source: NYC Open Data — DOB, HPD, OATH, DOF, DCP and ACRIS datasets — compiled by NYC Property Facts.)
