168 Milford Street, Brooklyn, NY 11208

The two-family house at 168 Milford Street, owned by Elka Warren, has experienced recurring maintenance issues since at least 2012, with the most recent inspections suggesting ongoing pest problems. Most notably, between 2021-2022, there were several documented infestations of mice and roaches in the first-floor apartment (1FL), along with violations related to inadequate carbon monoxide detection and visible mold in the bathroom.

The building has also faced multiple water-related issues, with two documented slow leaks in 2021 and a pattern of water-related complaints, though inspections typically found no violations. Electrical problems have been another persistent concern, with two separate "no lighting" complaints in 2021, one of which was classified as an emergency. The property has a history of rodent inspections showing mixed results between 2009-2013, with some indicating rat activity and others passing compliance checks.

In addition to the pest and maintenance issues, various other concerns have been documented, including problems with the intercom system, ceiling conditions, and inadequate bathroom facilities. While some violations have been addressed and certified as resolved, several remain open as of October 2023, including those related to pest control and carbon monoxide detection systems. The building's age (built in 1901) and persistent maintenance issues suggest ongoing challenges with upkeep, particularly in the first-floor unit where most of the violations have been documented.
