Augrented Insights Report for 1420 Mermaid Avenue

The 21-unit, 4-story building at 1420 Mermaid Avenue in Coney Island, owned by Louis Russo and constructed in 1921, has experienced several significant maintenance and compliance issues in recent years. Most notably, there are multiple open violations from 2024 regarding lead-based paint hazards and the failure to file annual bedbug reports. The building is facing active Environmental Control Board violations for failing to comply with vacate orders in March and June 2024 related to parking lot use, with penalties totaling $14,430.

Additionally, there are longstanding Department of Buildings violations regarding energy benchmarking report filings and display requirements, dating back to 2020-2021. The building has a documented history of safety concerns, particularly in 2022 when multiple violations were issued for non-compliance with smoke and carbon monoxide detector requirements, as well as pest-related issues. Recent activity includes a DOHMH inspection in 2025 regarding rodent/unsanitary conditions.

While the building successfully passed rodent inspections in 2011, 2016, and 2019, the most recent complaints suggest ongoing pest management challenges. The property has also been cited for improper handling of vaccine mandates in late 2021 through early 2022. While some historical issues have been resolved, including emergency repairs to windows and walls in 2021, the current pattern of open violations indicates ongoing regulatory compliance challenges, particularly regarding environmental health requirements.
