1861 Coney Island Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11230
The 6-unit, 3-story New Law Tenement building at 1861 Coney Island Avenue in Midwood, owned by Michael Chan, has several concerning ongoing issues as of mid-2025.
Most notably, there appears to be a persistent rodent problem, with the Department of Health and Mental Hygiene documenting mouse sightings in late 2023, rat activity confirmed in both recorded inspections at the beginning of 2024 and late 2023, and historical rodent complaints dating back to 2022. The building has accumulated multiple Housing Maintenance Code violations, all relating to an apparent failure to file required annual bedbug reports from 2021 through 2024, which remains unresolved as of April 2024.
Additionally, there are two active Department of Buildings violations from June 2023 regarding the failure to file external low-pressure inspections for both 2018 and 2019, though these particular violations are related to documentation rather than direct safety concerns. While the building underwent an initial rodent inspection in June 2022 and passed, the subsequent inspections and ongoing violations suggest a troubling pattern of pest management challenges in recent years.
