1581 Coney Island Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11230

The 2-story, 3-unit residential building at 1581 Coney Island Avenue in Midwood, owned by Joseph Rothstein and constructed in 1928, has a relatively small number of violations on record, with most centered around administrative matters rather than direct tenant impact. Between 2021 and 2024, the building received four Class A violations for failing to file the mandatory annual bedbug report with the Housing Maintenance Code (HMC), specifically noted in violation notices dated between 2021 and 2024.

However, these violations were all subsequently closed, and most importantly, recent bedbug report filings (2025, 2024, 2023, and 2021) have consistently shown zero infested dwelling units, zero eradicated units, and zero re-infested units, indicating effective pest management practices at the property. In addition to the bedbug reporting requirements, there was one Department of Buildings violation in June 2023 related to the failure to file a 2018 external low-pressure inspection, though this violation was dismissed by July 2023.

The building's recent history suggests that while there have been compliance issues in the past regarding documentation requirements, the property has maintained a good track record regarding actual pest infestations, with no documented cases of bedbugs in the past four reporting periods. The most recent bedbug report filing in July 2025 covers the period from November 2023 to October 2024, continuing the pattern of timely reporting and consistent pest management.
