1528 Mermaid Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11224

This four-story, seven-unit residential building located at 1528 Mermaid Avenue in Coney Island was built in 1930 and is currently owned by Robert Aronov. The building has experienced several significant maintenance issues in recent years, most notably between June-August 2020, when multiple emergency and non-emergency complaints were filed regarding unsanitary conditions, including mold, water leaks, and paint/plaster problems. Violations were subsequently issued in July 2020 regarding various maintenance issues in Apartment 4A, including problems with the bathroom's plastered surfaces, window glass, carbon monoxide detector, mouse infestation, roof leaks, ceramic floor tiles, and the need for window guards.

These violations were certified as resolved by June 2020. More recent concerns emerged in 2022, when violations were recorded regarding the building's parapet wall condition, which was reportedly leaning over the roof and causing concerns about window lintels. These violations were ultimately dismissed in early 2024 following inspections that found no unsafe conditions.

The building's bedbug reports from 2020-2024 show no infestations, and rodent inspections between 2009-2011 indicate some historical pest control challenges, though the most recent inspection in 2011 passed. The building has consistently submitted bedbug reports showing zero infested units, and there appear to be no outstanding housing violations as of the most recent data available. The property has maintained an active compliance record with the city's bedbug reporting requirements since 2019, showing effective management of this particular concern.
