576 Midwood Street, Brooklyn, NY 11203

The 576 Midwood Street building is a two-story, four-unit residential tenement constructed in 1931, currently owned by Euclid Small. The property has experienced recurring maintenance and compliance issues over recent years, with the most pressing concern being three open violations from 2022-2024 related to the failure to file annual bedbug reports as required by Housing Maintenance Code. In 2021, HPD issued multiple violations during inspections between June 3-20, including issues with paint/plaster on walls and ceilings, a water leak, and door problems, all of which were subsequently closed.

The building experienced significant heating and hot water complaints during late 2019, with violations documented in November and December of that year. Earlier issues include multiple emergency door-related violations in February 2020 and a failed rodent inspection in October 2018. Notably, there was an unlicensed work complaint filed in September 2019, though access was not granted for inspection.

The building's recent history shows a pattern of maintenance challenges, particularly regarding heating systems and water-related issues. While many past violations have been resolved, the ongoing bedbug reporting violations from 2021-2024 represent the most current compliance issue. The property has undergone various inspections and repairs over the years, with some violations requiring attention to specific units, notably Unit 2F, which had multiple documented issues including problems with plaster surfaces, windows, water leaks, and door functionality.
