1020 Coney Island Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11230

1020 Coney Island Avenue is a two-family house located in Kensington, constructed in 1933 and currently owned by Panina Rosenberg. The property has experienced recurring heating issues, with two separate heat and hot water complaints reported in January 2024, one of which was investigated but access was not granted for proper verification.

During 2019, multiple complaints were filed regarding various conditions including garbage/recycling storage and door/window issues, all of which were inspected but resulted in no violations being issued. More concerning was a series of safety-related violations from 2019-2021 involving obstructions in exit passageways that resulted in multiple Environmental Control Board (ECB) violations, with penalties totaling $6,250, though records indicate these issues were resolved. The building's maintenance history shows several building system concerns, including a broken or defective glass at the building entrance door recorded as a violation in 2019, though most recent inspections have not resulted in new violations.

Both the Department of Buildings and Housing Preservation and Development responded to multiple complaints between 2019-2024, with the majority of inspections being conducted, though access denial was a recurring issue limiting proper verification of certain complaints. A rodent inspection in 2018 initially showed rat activity, but a follow-up inspection that same year passed, indicating the issue was addressed. While the building has had various maintenance concerns over the years, the most critical issues appear to have been addressed through the violation resolution process, though the recent heating system complaints in early 2024 suggest ongoing maintenance challenges.
