82 East 7th Street, Brooklyn, NY 11218

The six-story, 67-unit building at 82 East 7th Street in Windsor Terrace, constructed in 1939 and currently managed by 40 Ocean Parkway Realty Tenants Corp, has experienced several significant maintenance issues over the past five years. Most notably, there have been persistent elevator problems, with multiple complaints filed between 2018 and 2021 regarding "Single Device on Property/No Alternate Service" issues, resulting in Environmental Control Board (ECB) violations in 2021 for various elevator deficiencies including inoperative systems and defective components.

The building has also faced heating system challenges, with HPD responding to a no heat/hot water complaint in October 2020, though residents reported restoration of service shortly thereafter. The property has maintained a good record in terms of pest control, with no reported bedbug infestations in the past five filing periods from 2021 to 2025, and passed rodent inspections in 2014. Two Housing Maintenance Code violations were issued in 2021 and 2022 regarding the failure to file annual bedbug reports, though these were subsequently closed.

The building's elevator system remains a critical area of concern, with active violations from 2019 indicating unresolved defects that require attention. The most recent building inspection in July 2023 related to Local Law 188/17 Compliance found no violations at the time. While the building's management has addressed many issues as they arise, the periodic recurrence of elevator problems and heating system complaints suggests ongoing maintenance challenges that should be monitored.
