Augrented Insights Report for 255 East 18th Street

255 East 18th Street in Flatbush is a 6-story, 42-unit residential building constructed in 1935 and currently owned by Anthony Pistilli. The property has experienced recurring heat and hot water issues throughout 2025, with multiple emergency complaints filed in January, February, and April of 2025, though some inspections were unable to gain access to verify the conditions. In addition to the heating problems, several apartments have been documented with various maintenance issues, including a September 2024 violation for broken plaster and mold in Apartment 2C, and pest infestations in Apartment 5B (roaches and mice) noted in September 2024 inspections.

Safety concerns have also been documented, with violations related to door and window maintenance, including self-closing door issues in Apartments 5B and 6E. The building's maintenance history reveals persistent problems with pest control, as indicated by multiple rodent activity reports and bait applications between 2019-2024. The property has several active violations regarding external low-pressure inspection filings from 2019-2024, and a 2024 Environmental Control Board violation related to suspended scaffold installation notifications.

Historical data shows patterns of elevator service complaints between 2021-2022, though inspections generally found no violations at those times. The building's bedbug reporting records from 2019-2024 indicate minimal infestation issues, with only one reported case in 2019 that was subsequently eradicated. While some violations have been resolved through proper certification, several current issues remain open, particularly those related to building safety systems and maintenance requirements.
