219 Avenue I, Brooklyn, NY 11230

This three-story, three-unit residential building at 219 Avenue I in Midwood, owned by David Levi, has experienced persistent compliance issues over the past several years. Most notably, there has been an ongoing pattern of unaddressed violations related to bedbug reporting requirements, with four consecutive annual violations documented between 2021 and 2024, all remaining in open status as of the most recent inspection.

The building has also faced multiple concerns regarding unauthorized work in occupied multiple dwellings, with five such complaints recorded between May and June 2025 alone, though inspection results varied from violations being served to no violations being warranted at the time of inspection. A permit was issued in May 2023 for unspecified work ( EW - Emergency Work), but no specific details about the nature of the work are available in the current records.

The property does have some positive history, including a successful rodent inspection pass in December 2016, though more recent inspections from 2023-2024 have not documented any similar concerns. An illegal curb cut/driveway complaint was filed in June 2023, with the case ultimately closed in July 2024 after inspection found no violations. While the building has received several permits over the years, including for roof work and emergency repairs, the consistent pattern of bedbug reporting violations and multiple complaints about unauthorized work suggest ongoing management challenges, particularly in terms of regulatory compliance and communication with city agencies.
