2222 East 18th Street, Brooklyn, NY 11229
2222 East 18th Street is a 6-story, 67-unit residential building in Sheepshead Bay, constructed in 1963 and currently owned by Yakov Gelb. The building has experienced recurrent heat and hot water system issues, with multiple complaints recorded between December 2024 and January 2025, affecting the entire building before being temporarily resolved. These were classified as emergency situations and required HPD intervention.
A comprehensive inspection in November 2024 revealed several maintenance concerns, including defects in vestibule door latch sets, fire retardant materials, ceiling conditions, and roof leaks in public areas. Specific apartment-related issues included inadequate heat supply in unit 3E and defective smoke detector and carbon monoxide detector in unit 2G. The building has a history of elevator service concerns, with multiple complaints about single device operation and no alternate service between 2019 and 2024, though inspections generally found no violations at the time.
Notably, in late 2019, the building received several Environmental Control Board violations related to gas appliance installation and safety requirements, resulting in various penalties totaling $10,000. These violations were later resolved. More recent inspections (2023-2024) show no active bedbug or rodent infestation issues, with the most recent rodent inspection passing in November 2024. While the building has had various maintenance and safety violations over the years, many have been addressed and resolved, though the recent heating system problems suggest ongoing infrastructure challenges.
