Augrented Insights Report for 109 Sherman Avenue

The five-story New Law Tenement at 109 Sherman Avenue, owned by Michael Haas, has experienced several significant issues in recent months, most notably an open complaint regarding unsanitary conditions and pests as of April 2025, and multiple heat and hot water service disruptions throughout early 2025, affecting both individual apartments and the entire building. The building has undergone recurring elevator/intercom system problems, with multiple violations issued in late 2024 concerning the bell/buzzer/intercom systems affecting apartment 22.

A significant concentration of housing code violations was documented in mid-2024 in apartment 24, including issues with rodent infestations (both mice and cockroaches), lead paint hazards, and problems with smoke and carbon monoxide detectors. The property has passed recent rodent inspections in 2025, 2024, and 2023, though earlier inspections in 2019 had indicated rat activity. The building's history shows several safety and maintenance concerns, including multiple Department of Buildings complaints and violations between 2019 and 2023 related to construction work, including three separate ECB violations issued in November 2019 regarding work without proper plumbing and electrical permits in apartment 34.

There have been four recorded boiler-related complaints between 2021 and 2023, though inspections generally found no violations. Between 2020 and 2022, multiple violations were issued regarding inadequate tenant protection measures during construction work, including failure to properly post construction rights and maintain proper dust control measures. The building has maintained a clean record regarding bedbug infestations in recent years, with no reports of affected dwelling units since 2018.
