Augrented Insights Report

The five-unit residential building at 3840-3860 18th Street, owned by 3850 18th Street Housing As, was constructed in 1971 and has experienced numerous maintenance and safety issues in recent years. Most concerning is a cluster of recent problems involving fire safety systems, with multiple violations recorded between 2023-2024 for alarm systems, sprinkler maintenance, and emergency responder radio coverage systems (ERRCS). There have been three fire code violation notices issued in October 2024 alone regarding multiple fire code violations, alarm systems, and unsafe sleeping area requirements.

The building has also struggled with basic habitability issues, including recent complaints about no heat in unit 514, inadequate ventilation, and water quality concerns in 2024. The property has undergone several infrastructure improvements, including water heater upgrades in 2024, and previously installed safety systems such as two-way communication systems and emergency responder radio coverage systems. The building's maintenance history shows a pattern of addressing but frequently recurring issues, particularly with water systems and building envelope integrity.

Multiple complaints about plumbing issues have been documented, including water damage, drainage problems, and lead paint concerns that were abated in 2020. Recent work has included electrical system updates and various fire safety system improvements, though some of these improvements have been subject to subsequent violations. The property has experienced pest issues, with recent reports of bed bug infestations in late 2024, and there have been ongoing concerns about the building's infrastructure and systems requiring regular attention to meet habitability and safety standards. Recent building permits show continuing investment in upgrading building systems, including the replacement of water heaters and fire safety system components, though these improvements have sometimes been necessitated by compliance issues rather than routine maintenance.
