2825 West 16th Street, Brooklyn, NY 11224

2825 West 16th Street is a 6-story, 10-unit residential building constructed in 2014 in Coney Island, currently owned by Igor Zagranichny. The building has experienced several maintenance issues over the years, with the most significant cluster of problems occurring in late 2021. During that period, there were multiple emergency complaints related to mold, flooring, plumbing, and appliance issues, as well as several non-emergency concerns including problems with cabinets and paint/plaster.

The Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD) issued violations for mold (approximately 4 square feet in the bathroom), floor tile damage, window guard deficiencies, and an infestation of roaches in apartment 2A, among other issues, though most of these violations were subsequently closed by December 2021. Earlier issues included complaints about windows and doors in January 2019 that HPD could not inspect due to access issues, and an asbestos-related complaint in January 2021 that resulted in an advisory to the property management. The building's elevator system was cited for multiple violations in October 2020, including problems with the cab mirror, door components, and emergency signage, though this violation was resolved with no penalties.

Despite these maintenance challenges, it's worth noting that the building has maintained a clean record for bedbugs, with all annual inspections from 2017 through 2024 showing zero infested units. A rodent inspection conducted in March 2011, prior to the building's completion, resulted in a passing grade. While the building has had its share of maintenance issues, most violations from 2021 have been addressed, with no recent complaints or violations on record as of 2025
