1014 Avenue N, Brooklyn, NY 11230

The six-story, 49-unit residential building at 1014 Avenue N in Midwood, owned by Ellen Rabin, has experienced several significant maintenance issues over the past few years, with the most recent being a DOHMH inspection attempt in August 2024 regarding unsanitary pigeon conditions that could not be properly evaluated due to access issues. The building has faced multiple heat and hot water service interruptions, with complaints recorded in March and June 2021, though both issues were reportedly resolved quickly during inspections.

A notable cluster of complaints was recorded in July 2021, including issues with garbage/recycling storage, flooring/stairs, and pest problems, with the latter resulting in C-class violations for a mice infestation in the basement. The building's elevator system required attention in October 2021, but no violations were found upon inspection. The property has maintained consistent documentation over the years, with no recorded bedbug or rodent infestations in the past five years, as confirmed by regular rodent inspections in 2024, 2020, and 2013, all of which passed.

Prior violations from 2018 and 2020 were addressed, including safety concerns regarding missing electrical outlet covers and a required notice about the availability of the agency's housing information guide. Multiple permits were issued in 2019 for unspecified work, and a complaint regarding illegal activity was investigated in September 2019 but resulted in no actionable violations. The building's response to HPD interventions has generally been prompt, with most complaints resulting in either no violations found or timely resolutions, though access issues did occur during some inspections.
