341 East 19th Street, Brooklyn, NY 11226

341 East 19th Street is a 35-unit, 6-story residential building constructed in 1931 and currently owned by Louis Garcia. The building has experienced several significant maintenance issues in recent months, most notably a heating and hot water outage affecting the entire building in March 2025, which was confirmed by HPD inspectors.

Multiple violations were issued in February 2025 related to various building maintenance issues including door and window problems, wall paint/plaster issues, and plumbing concerns in multiple units. The building's elevator system has been a persistent concern, with numerous complaints about "Single Device on Property/No Alternate Service" between 2021 and 2024, culminating in an August 2024 ECB violation requiring repairs to the first-floor hall button station, inoperative car phone, and lubricate zone lock restrictor. The property has multiple open housing maintenance code violations as of December 2024, including water leak issues in Apartment 3A and problems with the building's heating system access.

There are also several open violations related to water damage in units 6D and 6E, and issues with plaster surfaces in units 1E and 3A. While the building has maintained a consistent record of zero bedbug infestations since 2019 and has generally passed rodent inspections, there was one failed inspection in October 2024. The building's maintenance history shows a pattern of unresolved issues, particularly regarding elevator service and various maintenance violations, suggesting ongoing challenges with timely repairs and building systems maintenance.
