Augrented Insights Report for 2905 Fredrick Douglass Bl

2905 Fredrick Douglass Boulevard is a 7-story, 77-unit residential building constructed in 1993, currently owned by Steven Robinson. The building has experienced several recurring maintenance issues over the past few years, with the most recent complaints in 2025 involving unsanitary conditions related to pests and asbestos concerns. Of particular note is a period of substantial heat and hot water system problems in early 2024, with multiple complaints from different tenants, though HPD was unable to gain access for inspection.

The building has also faced water-related issues, with complaints regarding plumbing problems and water supply in late 2023 and 2024. There was a significant fire incident in apartment 6G in 2022 that rendered the unit temporarily unsafe to occupy, though repairs were completed and signed off as safe to return. More recent inspections have shown some improvements, with passed rodent inspections in 2023 and 2025, though there were reports of rat activity detected in 2024.

The building's elevator systems were problematic in 2021, with multiple complaints about single-device property service. Currently, there are several active Department of Buildings violations related to failure to submit required energy efficiency reports and documentation for multiple years from 2021 to 2024, including one for elevator door lock monitoring systems issued in 2020 with an associated penalty. The property has shown some issues with bedbug infestation, with the most recent report from 2024 indicating two units affected, though previous reports showed no infestations. The building has had various other maintenance violations over the years, primarily focusing on heat, water, and electrical systems, though many have been addressed through closure orders.
