Augrented Insights Report for 186 Claremont Avenue

186 Claremont Avenue is a 5-story, 16-unit, New Law Tenement building constructed in 1926, currently owned by 184-188 Claremont Investors LLC. The property has experienced recurring heating system issues, with multiple heat and hot water-related complaints throughout 2024-2025, including an emergency complaint filed in December 2024 that was temporarily resolved but indicates ongoing maintenance challenges. Recent inspections in October 2024 revealed inadequate cold water supply and water temperature issues in Apartment 4E, triggering Class C violations.

The building's elevator and fire safety systems have also been a concern, with violations noted for obstructed fire egress passages and concerns about door self-closing mechanisms. The boiler system has undergone scrutiny, with two separate defective/inoperative complaints in 2022 resulting in violations, and a 2024 Environmental Control Board violation citing exposed wiring and other equipment issues. The building has maintained a relatively clean record with regard to bedbugs, with no reported infestations in the past three years, though there was one incident in 2019-2020.

Rodent inspections have shown mixed results, with several "Passed" inspections in 2024-2025, though previous years indicated rat activity concerns in 2022-2023. The property has undergone multiple HPD inspections related to various maintenance issues, including mold concerns, door/window repairs, and sanitary conditions, with most complaints being resolved through inspections or repairs. While some housing maintenance code violations have been closed, several issues remain open or marked as "unable to complete inspection," suggesting persistent maintenance challenges that may affect resident comfort and safety.
