1833 East 12th Street, Brooklyn, NY 11229
The 81-unit, 6-story building at 1833 East 12th Street in Sheepshead Bay, owned by Aidin Ujka and constructed in 1959, has experienced recurring heating and water issues in recent years, with multiple complaints in 2024-2025 regarding building-wide heat and hot water outages. Between December 2024 and May 2025, there were seven documented incidents of heat/hot water complaints (both building-wide and apartment-specific), with inspections generally finding that heat and hot water had been restored by the time of HPD's response. Prior to these heating issues, the building had plumbing concerns in October 2024, with two complaints about water supply problems, and a slow water leak complaint in March 2024.
The building's elevator system has also been a significant focus of attention, with multiple complaints about single-device service and no alternate service recorded throughout 2024-2025. Inspections of the elevator system in 2025 (following complaints from 2024) found no violations warranting penalties. Environmental Control Board violations from 2022-2024 show attention to elevator maintenance, including issues with brake maintenance, outdated logs, and concerns about a concrete ramp constructed in the lobby.
The building has undergone various repairs and maintenance work, as evidenced by permit issuance records in 2019 and 2020. Apartment-specific issues were documented in 2022, particularly in apartment 6B, which had multiple violations including water leakage, mold conditions, and various maintenance concerns such as broken floor tiles and defective smoke detectors. Apartment 2F was also cited for issues with self-closing doors and carbon monoxide detectors in February 2022. Notably, the building has maintained a clean record for pest control, with no reported bedbug infestations in the past five reporting periods (2020-2025), and passed multiple rodent inspections between 2011-2014.
