573 18th Street, Brooklyn, NY 11218

The 2-family house at 573 18th Street in Windsor Terrace, owned by John Liebermann, is a 2-story building constructed in 1925. The property experienced significant maintenance issues in the fall of 2018, with multiple emergency complaints and violations spanning September to November 2018.

These issues primarily centered around essential services, including multiple reports of inadequate heat and hot water affecting both individual apartments and the entire building, as well as problems with electrical systems and cooking gas. Notably, HPD inspections on November 9, 2018, confirmed violations related to heat, hot water, and gas supply deficiencies in the first-floor apartment (1FL), including inadequate heating systems and hot water fixtures. The building also received a violation for a loose electrical light fixture in the public hall on the first story.

Despite the gravity of these issues, all of the 2018 complaints were ultimately closed between late September and late November 2018, though several violations remain open according to the most recent records. Notably, there have been no documented complaints or violations in the past five years (from late 2018 to 2023), suggesting that the building has maintained a stable period of compliance with housing regulations since the 2018 incidents. The building's two-family classification indicates it contains two separate residential units, and its 1925 construction date places it among the older residential buildings in New York City.
