1871 Coney Island Avenue is a 3-story, 6-unit residential building constructed in 1915, currently owned by Gurdev Kang and located in Midwood. The property has experienced several recurring maintenance issues over recent years, with the most significant being ongoing rodent activity.

As of 2023, there have been multiple rodent complaints and inspections, with the most recent inspections in July and August 2023 showing rat activity and bait application. The building has also faced challenges with garbage management, evidenced by multiple unsanitary condition complaints regarding garbage/recycling storage in 2022, 2021, and 2018, with current violations as of June 2023 related to inadequate waste receptacles. Previous maintenance history reveals various issues impacting resident comfort and safety, including a heat and hot water outage in December 2018, which was reportedly resolved during the HPD's response.

The building has undergone several inspections and received various violations that have generally been addressed, including corrections to fire-retardant materials and wall conditions in public areas in early 2019. Notably, the building has maintained a clean record regarding bedbug infestations over the past five reporting periods from 2019 to 2025, with no reported instances of infestation or reinfestation. While the property has experienced numerous complaints and violations, most issues appear to be related to maintenance and hygiene rather than structural concerns, with many violations being addressed through routine inspections and follow-up actions.
