Augrented Insights Report for 385 East 18th Street

The 6-story, 71-unit building at 385 East 18th Street in Flatbush, owned by Maria Valente, has experienced recurring heating issues in recent years, with three separate heat/hot water complaints occurring within one week in April 2025, and two similar incidents in November 2024. These heating problems have required emergency responses from HPD and were only partially verified by inspectors during the 2024 incidents. The building has also faced multiple maintenance challenges, including unresolved construction lead dust concerns from March 2023, and various code violations identified during a September 2023 inspection, particularly regarding electrical wiring, concrete ceiling conditions, and self-closing doors in the southwest cellar hallway.

Two significant violations from 2023 remain open related to unsafe electrical wiring at the west room in the cellar story, and a partition creating a utility closet for the main sewer line trap. The property's history shows periodic rodent control efforts, with inspections in 2024 passing, though earlier inspections in 2022-2023 noted rat activity and required bait application. Elevator maintenance has been a recurring issue, with violations noted in 2018 regarding missing components and safety features. While the building has documented instances of bedbug infestations in previous years (notably in 2021), the most recent reports from 2022-2024 indicate no current infestations.

The Department of Buildings has processed several inspections related to work without permits and illegal conversions, with varying levels of enforcement action, including a $3,125 penalty in 2023 for an unpermitted construction fence. The building has undergone regular compliance inspections under Local Law 188/17, with the most recent inspection in 2024 showing no enforcement action required. Despite these ongoing maintenance and safety concerns, the property has a generally passing record for rodent inspections since late 2024, though various other violations and maintenance issues remain to be fully resolved. The building's age (constructed in 1940) and extensive history of complaints and violations suggest ongoing challenges with maintenance and compliance, though some recent improvements in pest control and compliance inspections are noted.
