2867 West 16th Street, Brooklyn, NY 11224

2867 West 16th Street is a 2-family house located in Coney Island, built in 1920 and currently owned by Victor Okani. The property has experienced persistent rodent issues over recent years, with the most recent inspections in 2024 and 2025 showing rat activity or non-compliance with health standards, following multiple baiting treatments in 2022.

The building has several open violations from 2018 related to maintenance issues in the second-floor apartment, including problems with plaster surfaces, floor tiles, and doors. There are also concerning patterns of garbage and unsanitary conditions documented through multiple Housing Maintenance Code complaints and violations, particularly notable in 2018 when multiple inspections identified issues with refuse accumulation at the front yard and various interior problems.

The property has faced regulatory scrutiny with active Environmental Control Board violations for work done without permits in 2018, related to structural supports installed in the cellar, and non-compliance penalties totaling $12,500 issued in 2018 and 2019. More recently, in 2024 and 2025, complaints about illegal curb cuts or driveways were investigated, though records indicate these were ultimately closed with corrective action or further investigation. Despite multiple agency inspections and interventions over the years, the persistence of rodent issues and various open violations suggests ongoing maintenance challenges at the property.
