Augrented Insights Report for 78 Thayer Street

78 Thayer Street is a 6-story, 62-unit residential building constructed in 1928 and currently owned by David Camal. The building has experienced ongoing maintenance challenges, most notably concerning heat and water systems, with multiple complaints in both 2024 and early 2025 regarding inadequate heating and hot water supply affecting various units and the entire building. The property has also faced significant pest management issues, including recent rat sightings in June 2025, and persistent rodent activity documented through multiple inspections between 2023 and 2025.

The most recent inspections show rat activity, with bait applied in early 2023 but continuing sightings beyond that period. The building has a documented history of maintenance violations, particularly affecting Apartment 3F, where inspections in late 2023 revealed multiple issues including mold, lead paint hazards, rodent infestation, and maintenance of plastered surfaces. The property has undergone various inspections and faced multiple violations related to construction work, including several instances of work being performed without proper permits in 2022 and 2024.

There were also serious tenant safety concerns addressed in 2024, including inadequate tenant protection plans and related violations. While the building has maintained a bedbug-free record since 2019, with no reported infestations in recent years, the continuing issues with heat, water, and pests suggest ongoing maintenance challenges. The property has undergone various repairs and improvements, with multiple emergency work permits issued between 2020 and 2024, though some violations related to failed inspections remain open as of the most recent data.
