Augrented Insights Report for 2359 Fredrick Douglass Bl

2359 Frederick Douglass Boulevard is a 10-unit, 5-story old law tenement building constructed in 1910, currently owned by Emo Realty Partners LLC. The building has experienced recurring heat and hot water issues throughout 2025, with multiple complaints and emergency violations documented, particularly in May and June 2025, though inspections have often been unable to gain access to units.

A concerning pattern emerged in early 2025 with numerous complaints about building-wide heat issues, including several reported on January 17, February 9, and February 23 of that year. The building also underwent significant scrutiny in late 2023 regarding possible illegal modifications, with three Environmental Control Board violations issued against Emo Realty Partners LLC between August and September 2023, specifically relating to unauthorized cellar modifications in Apartment 1A, including inadequate egress, lighting, and ventilation, as well as unpermitted spiral staircase construction.

Additional concerns were raised in October 2024, when inspections revealed various maintenance issues in Apartment 2A, including problems with bathroom tiles, plumbing, mold, and pest infestation. The building's history shows some areas of improvement, as evidenced by passing rodent inspections in recent years and consistent bedbug reports indicating minimal infestation issues from 2021 through 2024. However, there are still open violations from 2024 related to building entrance door functionality and various maintenance matters, suggesting ongoing maintenance challenges.
