Augrented Insights Report for 440 Audubon Avenue

440 Audubon Avenue is a 6-story, 68-unit residential building constructed in 1911, currently owned by Hector De Jesus. The building has experienced persistent maintenance challenges, particularly in 2025, with multiple complaints and violations related to safety systems, pest control, and water issues. Most recently, in June 2025, there were two separate incidents involving paint/plaster issues and heavy water leaks, both resulting in HPD violations. The building has also faced recurring pest problems, with rodent activity documented through multiple inspections between 2023 and 2025, and the most recent inspections in 2025 indicating ongoing issues with rats.

Safety concerns have been a significant focus, including multiple complaints about safety devices such as smoke detectors and window guards in June 2025, though HPD inspectors were unable to complete evaluations. The elevator system has drawn attention in several complaints from 2018 through 2025, with issues ranging from multiple devices to emergency service problems. There have been historical bedbug infestations recorded in 2019-2020, though no reports of infestation have been filed since 2021. The building's maintenance record shows a pattern of addressing urgent issues while leaving some non-emergency violations open, as evidenced by several open maintenance code complaints from June 2025.

The property has also faced infrastructure challenges, with water leak issues persisting from at least 2024-2025, affecting units and common areas. The building's inspection history shows a mix of resolved and ongoing violations, with some recurring issues such as paint/plaster problems and safety equipment maintenance. While certain violations have been closed and addressed, such as self-closing door issues and various maintenance repairs, new complaints continue to emerge, particularly regarding safety systems and water-related problems. The property's documentation of bedbug activity shows consistent efforts at eradication, with zero reported infestations in the past three years.
