Where the buildings are All 4 buildings sit in Brooklyn. A single-borough portfolio means one set of inspectors, one housing court, and one local complaint pattern behind every number on this page.
How the violations are distributed Open violations are not spread evenly across these buildings. 327 18 Street alone carries 7 of them — 54% of everything open across the buildings with a current record — and one building holds half of the total. Behind it sit 549 18 Street with 4 and 269a 17 Street with 1.
Violations per apartment Across 12 apartments the portfolio runs 1.08 open violations per unit. two buildings average at least one open violation for every apartment in them.
Age of the stock The median building here went up in 1905, and 4 of 4 predate 1960. Pre-1960 buildings carry lead-paint and window-guard obligations that newer stock does not, which shapes what turns up in an inspection.
How long things stay open The longest-standing open item in the portfolio is at 327 18 Street and has been open 3.6 years. An old open violation is not a paperwork lag — it is a condition the city recorded and has not been shown to be corrected.
What has moved in the last two years 10 violations were written against these buildings in the last 24 months. 2 of them — 20% — have since been cleared, and 8 are still open. That ratio moves between city sweeps, which is why a standing total on its own says less than it looks like it does.
