Augrented Insights Report for 51 Mac Dougal Street

51 Mac Dougal Street is a four-story, five-unit Old Law Tenement building constructed in 1920 and currently owned by Leonard Cecere. The building has experienced numerous health and safety-related issues over recent years, most notably a series of rodent and pest control complaints in and around 2024-2025, with the most recent complaint still under investigation as of May 2025. The property has consistently failed to meet bedbug reporting requirements, as evidenced by open violations from 2021-2024.

A significant construction period occurred between late 2019 and early 2021, during which numerous safety violations were documented, including concerns about inadequate scaffolding, unprotected excavation, and improperly maintained construction fences. These violations, while resolved, resulted in penalties totaling over $10,000. The building has undergone regular rodent inspections, with the most recent results from 2023-2025 showing "Passed" status, though there were periods of concern in late 2019 with documented rat activity. The Department of Buildings has also issued multiple violations related to the failure to file external low-pressure inspection documentation in 2023, though these violations were ultimately dismissed in 2024.

The property has maintained a consistent pattern of health department interactions, with multiple inspections and violations related to food establishment hygiene, worker safety, and pest control. Between 2020 and 2025, there have been several service requests regarding construction work compliance and after-hours activities, though most were found to warrant no violation upon inspection. The building's permit history shows regular maintenance and improvement work being conducted, with various permits issued for plumbing, electrical, and alteration work between 2019 and 2021, suggesting ongoing investment in property maintenance despite the documented compliance issues. While most of the historical violations have been resolved or dismissed, the building has shown recurring patterns of reporting non-compliance and pest control issues over the past five years.
