318 Bay Ridge Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11220

The 6-unit, 3-story residential building at 318 Bay Ridge Avenue, owned by Elena Repman and constructed in 1931, has experienced several significant maintenance issues in recent years. Most recently, in October 2023, there was an incident involving loss of heat and hot water, though these services were reportedly restored within 24 hours.

The building has been subject to multiple housing maintenance code violations, with the most recent inspection in October 2023 revealing several safety concerns in the common areas including exposed electrical wiring, loose light fixtures, and problems with entrance doors - all of which were cited for immediate attention. Previous records show a concerning pattern of heating system reliability issues, evidenced by a 2021 complaint about a defective boiler which resulted in Environmental Control Board violations regarding boiler room conditions, though these were resolved with a penalty. The building's maintenance history also includes confusion over bedbug reporting requirements, with violations noted in 2021, 2022, and twice in 2023 regarding the failure to file annual bedbug reports, though recent filings show zero infested units.

While rodent issues were documented in 2016-2017 with reports of rat activity, there have been no recent rodent complaints on record. The property has had several inspections and violations regarding safety notices in the common areas, including gas leak procedures and building information guides, though most recent violations from October 2023 indicate these have been addressed. The building's documentation suggests ongoing challenges with infrastructure maintenance and regulatory compliance, particularly around heating systems and safety requirements in common areas, though recent inspections show progress in addressing these issues.
