Augrented Insights Report for 131 Avenue B

131 Avenue B is a 6-story, 18-unit residential building constructed in 1940, currently owned by Mark Levine and classified as a New Law Tenement. The property has experienced recurring heating and electrical issues, with the most recent incident being an open electrical complaint from June 2025 regarding inadequate lighting. This follows several emergency heat and hot water complaints in early 2025, including duplicate reports of building-wide issues, and previous heating problems documented in 2019.

The building has maintained a clean bedbug record from 2019-2024, showing zero infestations during annual reporting periods. Regular rodent inspections conducted between 2019 and 2025 have consistently passed, indicating effective pest control measures. The Department of Buildings has conducted multiple tenant safety inspections between 2020 and 2022, with findings including a July 2021 violation related to elevator maintenance that was resolved by March 2022.

Two significant violations were issued in December 2020 regarding inadequate tenant protection plans during restoration work, for which fines were imposed but later resolved. An April 2021 violation concerning annual bedbug reporting was also cited and closed. The building's maintenance history shows some challenges with accessing units during inspections, particularly regarding heat/hot water complaints, which were closed due to inability to gain access for verification. Multiple permits have been issued for building work, including electrical and plumbing permits from 2019 and 2020, suggesting ongoing maintenance and improvements to the property infrastructure.
