Augrented Insights Report for 170 East 19th Street

The 16-unit, 4-story building at 170 East 19th Street in Flatbush, built in 1916, has experienced significant and recurring issues with heat and hot water throughout late 2024 and into 2025. Between November 2024 and January 2025, there were multiple emergency complaints and violations relating to heat and hot water problems affecting both the entire building and individual apartments (notably apartments 1C, 2D, and 4G), with some violations remaining open as of current records. Additional issues included a heavy water leak complaint in December 2024, security access concerns regarding the heating system, and various maintenance violations such as defective smoke detectors and carbon monoxide detectors.

The building's boiler system has been a recurring source of problems, with multiple complaints about defective/inoperative equipment documented in 2018, 2019, and most recently in 2024. There were also concerning reports of rat activity during inspections in 2023-2024, and the building has experienced periods of bedbug infestations, though no units were reported infested in 2023-2024. The property has undergone some administrative scrutiny, with violations issued for failing to file required external low-pressure inspections in 2022 and 2023, though these were later dismissed.

A notable environmental control board violation was recorded in 2019 regarding various boiler system deficiencies, including a defective gas pilot regulator and other safety concerns, which was resolved without penalties. Recent inspection activity continued into 2025, with permits being issued for work on the property, suggesting some level of ongoing maintenance or improvements despite the documented systemic issues. Historical records show a pattern of maintenance challenges, particularly with heating systems and pest control, as well as periodic issues with building access for inspections.
