414 Midwood Street, Brooklyn, NY 11225

The three-unit, three-story residential building at 414 Midwood Street in Prospect-Lefferts Gardens, owned by Abraham Posner, has experienced several maintenance and compliance issues since its construction in 2007, most notably during a series of inspections and violations recorded in 2021. These violations, primarily related to safety and maintenance requirements, include issues with heating system access, documentation of heater inspection certificate, and various required safety notices that were not properly posted in common areas. In March 2021, the building was cited for violations regarding emergency heating system access, missing safety notices for smoke detectors and carbon monoxide devices, and inadequate posting of important building information, though these were subsequently addressed and marked as closed.

A significant incident of mold was reported in late 2022, which prompted an HPD inspection in November 2022; while no violations were issued, it was classified as an unsanitary condition. More recently, in April 2024, a violation was noted regarding the failure to file annual bedbug reports, though this appears to have been an administrative oversight, as subsequent reports from December 2024 show no incidents of bedbugs or infestations in the building between 2021 and 2024. The building's earlier history shows proper maintenance of pest control measures, with regular bedbug reporting from 2020-2024 indicating zero infestation cases during those periods.

An initial rodent inspection in June 2013 resulted in a passed status. While the building has experienced several compliance issues over the years, particularly during the 2021 inspections, most recent records suggest improved maintenance and compliance, though occasional violations related to safety notice postings and administrative requirements persist. As of the latest available data, there are no ongoing health or safety violations on record for this property.
