18 Bay 22nd Street, Brooklyn, NY 11214

18 Bay 22nd Street is a two-story, four-unit residential building constructed in 1923, currently owned by Marzena Pudelkiewicz. The building has experienced several notable issues in recent years, with the most concerning being a pattern of open violations related to annual bedbug reporting requirements in 2022, 2023, and 2024. These violations indicate ongoing non-compliance with HPD regulations regarding pest management documentation.

The building had a heat and hot water emergency complaint in December 2019, though inspectors were unable to gain access to verify the issue. A significant cluster of violations was recorded in 2018-2021, primarily affecting the 1F apartment unit, including safety concerns such as missing smoke and carbon monoxide detectors, a loose light fixture, and issues with self-closing doors. Two plumbing permits were issued in 2019 and 2021, suggesting some recent maintenance activity, though a Local Law 188/17 compliance inspection in January 2023 was marked as inspector unable to gain access.

The building's most recent bedbug report from 2021 indicates all units were successfully treated and no new infestations were reported, though this was for the 2019-2020 reporting period. The property has had various other maintenance issues over the years, including problems with a drop ceiling in the 1F apartment (resolved in 2021) and encumbrances in the second-story public hall (partly addressed by 2021). While many earlier violations have been closed, the persistence of open bedbug reporting violations (most recent in 2024) suggests ongoing regulatory compliance challenges. The building's age and history of various maintenance issues, though some have been resolved, indicate a need for continued attention to building systems and compliance requirements.
