Augrented Insights Report for 225 Bennett Avenue

225 Bennett Avenue, a 106-unit, 6-story New Law Tenement built in 1940 and currently owned by Curtis Riley, has experienced recurring issues with heat and hot water systems throughout 2025, with three separate complaints in 2025 alone, including one affecting the entire building in June 2025. The building has also faced moisture-related challenges, with multiple water leak complaints in 2024, and ongoing maintenance issues affecting unit 6K, including problems with mold, leaks, and ceiling conditions noted in 2024 inspections.

A pattern of 311 service requests from 2024-2025 indicates ongoing challenges with access for inspections, particularly regarding heat/hot water and various maintenance issues. The building has several active and recently resolved violations that warrant attention, including an open Class A violation from October 2024 related to a broken light fixture in unit 3S, and multiple historical violations regarding door and window maintenance, including defective self-closing doors in public areas.

Two significant Environmental Control Board (ECB) violations from 2022 remain active, with substantial penalties associated with failure to comply with commissioner orders regarding work permits and building maintenance. While the building has maintained a mostly pest-free record in recent bedbug reports (with no infestations reported in 2023-2024), rodent inspections have shown mixed results, with rat activity reported in 2024 and 2023. The property has seen regular permit activity, with multiple permits issued between 2018-2025 for various maintenance and improvement projects, though some complaints regarding work without proper permits have been filed and subsequently closed.
