Augrented Insights Report for 611 Academy Street

The 6-story, 47-unit residential building at 611 Academy Street in Inwood, owned by Arash Merabi, has experienced significant maintenance challenges throughout 2024-2025. The property, a 1925 New Law tenement, is currently facing multiple open violations, including unsanitary conditions related to pests (specifically rodents) and plumbing issues in apartment C3, which has documented problems with leaky faucets at both the bathtub and sink. Recent service requests in 2025 have consistently reported pest-related issues, with violations issued by the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD) in March, April, and May 2025.

The building's rodent inspection records show intermittent rat activity, with the most recent initial inspection in June 2025 confirming continued pest presence, following similar findings in October 2024 and August 2024. The property has an extensive history of maintenance concerns documented through various channels. Housing Maintenance Code violations from September 2024 reveal multiple infrastructure issues, including problems with public hall walls, fire retardant materials, and window glass at different floors.

The building has undergone several inspections and received multiple citations for plumbing, pest control, and general maintenance issues, including emergency complaints about door/window problems. Historical records show earlier concerns about egress, boiler issues, and potential illegal conversions, though these were dismissed upon inspection. While no bedbug infestations have been reported in recent years (2018-2024), the ongoing pest issues suggest persistent maintenance challenges. The building's violation history includes a notable failure to file documentation related to low-pressure inspections in 2023, which was dismissed in 2024.
