181 Carlton Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11205

181 Carlton Avenue is a 4-story, 5-unit residential building located in Fort Greene, Brooklyn, owned by Michael Pligavko and constructed in 1901. The property has experienced several significant maintenance and construction events over recent years, with the most current being an April 2024 violation related to the failure to file an annual bedbug report, though this violation has since been closed. Between 2020-2021, the building underwent construction work that led to multiple Department of Buildings (DOB) complaints and Environmental Control Board (ECB) violations, all of which have been resolved.

These incidents included issues with construction safety compliance, improper housekeeping, and failure to maintain required documentation, with penalties totaling $1,875 imposed on Borough Construction LLC in June 2021. A stop work order was issued and subsequently rescinded during this period, indicating safety concerns that were later addressed. The building's bedbug reporting history from 2021 through 2025 shows no infestation incidents, with all reporting periods indicating zero infested, eradicated, or re-infested dwelling units.

The property has maintained an active permit history, with several permits issued between 2020-2021 for various construction work, including alterations and emergency repairs. While the building has experienced multiple violations and complaints during construction periods, these have all been addressed and closed, and the recent bedbug reporting compliance issues appear to be an isolated administrative matter rather than a reflection of ongoing pest concerns. The most recent bedbug report from January 2025 confirms the building's current pest-free status, covering the 2023-2024 reporting period.
