1970 East 18th Street, Brooklyn, NY 11229
The 106-unit, 6-story building at 1970 East 18th Street in Sheepshead Bay, owned by Yehuda Fridman, has experienced significant maintenance issues in recent years, particularly with its elevator system and multiple plumbing problems. Most notably, there are currently two active complaints from May 2025 regarding elevator devices, and between 2022-2023, there were numerous elevator-related violations and complaints, including multiple periods of the elevator being out of service, which is especially concerning given the building's age and size.
The building has also faced recurring water-related issues, with multiple complaints about water leaks and heavy flow between 2024-2025, though some inspections showed no violations. The property has experienced various maintenance challenges in recent years, including multiple complaints about appliances (with violations noted for electric/gas ranges), plumbing issues, and problems with doors and windows. A cluster of complaints in May 2024 involved issues with appliances, windows, and water leaks, particularly affecting apartment E11.
The building has had some structural concerns, with an ECB violation from 2024 noting defective exterior masonry and front decorative columns. While the building has generally maintained compliance with bedbug reporting requirements, having no recorded infestations in recent years, rodent inspections showed some failures in 2018-2019, though more recent inspections have passed. Several Housing Maintenance Code violations remain open as of 2024, including issues with window guards and water leaks in apartment E11, along with violations related to window frames and door issues.
