Augrented Insights Report for 70 Convent Avenue

70 Convent Avenue, a 9-story commercial building constructed in 1926 and containing 104 units, is currently experiencing ongoing heating system challenges, with multiple heat and hot water complaints recorded throughout 2024-2025. The most recent complaints in December 2024 involved the entire building, and previous issues were reported in August 2024, January 2024, and December 2023, with varying degrees of access for inspection by the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD). The building has also faced significant maintenance issues, including window frame problems (noted in multiple complaints throughout 2024) and infestations.

Specifically, apartment 2B showed evidence of mouse and roach infestations in early 2024, while apartment 2M had reported issues with pests in August 2024. The property has a history of infrastructure concerns, particularly regarding its facade and safety systems. Recent Department of Buildings (DOB) violations indicate ongoing issues with building maintenance, including cracked facades and terra cotta damage.

Environmental Control Board (ECB) violations from August 2024 highlight problems with safety equipment measures and building wall maintenance, with associated penalties. The building's elevator system has also been a point of concern, with complaints about multiple devices and maintenance issues recorded in recent years. Rodent inspections in 2023-2025 have shown mixed results, with recent inspections in March and April 2025 indicating rat activity. Notably, the building has maintained a clean record for bedbug infestations in recent reporting periods, with no units affected since 2019.
