Augrented Insights Report for 157 Suffolk Street

157 Suffolk Street is a 6-story, 35-unit New Law Tenement building constructed in 1900, currently owned by Thomas Brodie. The building has experienced recurring issues with water systems, evidenced by multiple heat/hot water complaints in early 2025 and multiple water leak reports throughout 2024, including emergency-level heavy flow incidents. There have been several paint/plaster issues reported, particularly affecting ceilings in 2024.

The building experienced rodent-related complaints in 2024, with both rat sightings and signs of rodents reported, though recent inspections in 2025 indicate no current rodent activity. Significant maintenance issues were documented in 2024, including an open violation regarding roof leaks affecting Apartment 603's ceiling, and various problems with ceiling plaster and paint in different units. The building's safety systems have required attention, with multiple Housing Maintenance Code violations identified in early 2024, including issues with self-closing doors in public areas and fire safety systems.

A Department of Buildings inspection in 2022 identified a problematic fire escape step, though this violation was resolved by 2024. The building has maintained a consistent record of bedbug reporting from 2019 to 2024, with most recent filings showing zero infested units, though there were past incidents requiring eradication in 2019-2020. Regular rodent inspections have been conducted, with the most recent one in March 2025 passing successfully, suggesting recent improvements in pest control. The building's maintenance history shows a pattern of recurring issues, particularly with water systems and interior maintenance, though many violations have been addressed through inspections and subsequent corrections.
