Augrented Insights Report for 97 Seaman Avenue

97 Seaman Avenue is a 5-story, 48-unit New Law Tenement building constructed in 1930, currently owned by Hector Moscat. The building has experienced recurring heat and hot water issues, with seven documented complaints in 2024-2025, three of which required HPD inspections but could not be accessed for verification. Recent complaints from April 2025 and multiple reports from late 2024 indicate ongoing concerns with heating systems.

The building has also faced challenges with sanitary conditions, particularly regarding garbage and recycling storage, with an open complaint from December 2024 still pending resolution. The most recent rodent inspections between 2024 and 2025 have consistently shown rat activity, suggesting persistent pest control challenges. Significant maintenance concerns have been documented in recent years, particularly in apartment 6A, which received multiple violations in December 2024 for lead-based paint hazards, peeling surfaces, and various painting requirements.

The building experienced structural complaints in 2018, including concerns about fire escape egress obstructions, and three ECB violations were issued between 2018-2019 regarding building walls and parapets, though these were eventually resolved. There is a notable history of bedbug infestations in the building, with three documented cases between 2022-2024, though recent filings indicate no current infestations. Multiple code violations and maintenance issues remain unresolved as of June 2025, including problems with window frames, electrical outlets, flooring, and plumbing systems. The building's history includes several Department of Buildings complaints regarding unauthorized work and illegal conversions between 2018-2022, though inspections did not warrant violations in these cases.
