This three-story, six-unit residential building in Coney Island, constructed in 1930 and currently owned by Muhammad Kaung, has experienced persistent maintenance challenges over recent years, with particular concerns around pest control and building conditions. In 2024 alone, there were multiple complaints related to pests (in November), mold (in May), and various other maintenance issues including plumbing, appliances, flooring, and window concerns.

Notably, all these complaints were investigated by the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD) but did not result in any violations. The building has maintained a clean bedbug report record from 2020 through 2025, with no reported infestations during this period. The property has undergone several rodent inspections, with the most recent in December 2024 passing without any violations, though there was documented rat activity in 2016 and compliance issues that required bait applications.

Significant violations recorded include several from 2022 involving Apartment 1R, pertaining to pest infestation, door issues, and safety equipment (carbon monoxide and smoke detectors) that were subsequently addressed. A vacant building complaint was filed in November 2024 but was found without warrant for violation upon inspection in May 2025. While the building has faced various maintenance challenges over the years, the recent patterns suggest improved compliance with inspection requirements, though the frequency of service requests indicates ongoing resident concerns about building conditions.
