2181 Coney Island Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11223
At 2181 Coney Island Avenue in Sheepshead Bay, this 2-story, 4-unit New Law tenement built in 1932 has experienced persistent heating system challenges throughout 2024-2025, with 11 documented heat/hot water complaints in just four months between December 2024 and January 2025.
These emergency complaints affected both individual apartments and the entire building, though many were reportedly resolved when HPD contacted tenants or through subsequent inspections. The building currently has eight open Housing Maintenance Code violations as of late 2024, including issues with the heating system access (a Class C violation), heating adequacy in apartment 1F, and several concerns related to public hallway maintenance such as furniture encumbrances, a broken vestibule door glass pane, and various notice posting requirements.
While there have been significant maintenance issues, particularly regarding the heating system, it's worth noting that the building has maintained a clean record concerning bedbug infestations, with official reports showing zero affected units between 2019 and 2025. The building's owner, Shulan Chen, currently faces multiple ongoing compliance issues, particularly with regard to heating system maintenance and public area upkeep.
