Augrented Insights Report for 250 Brook Avenue

The 5-story, 12-unit tenement building at 250 Brook Avenue in Mott Haven, owned by Peter Kindler, has experienced numerous maintenance issues in recent years, with the most significant concerns arising between early 2025 and mid-2025. The property has ongoing violations related to plumbing, with a partial stop-work order issued in June 2025, and multiple emergency complaints about heat and hot water systems affecting both the entire building and individual apartments.

Recent inspections have revealed critical safety issues, including an open violation related to a defective fire escape tread, and multiple open violations in Apartment 2R related to lead paint hazards, floor conditions, and missing safety devices. The building has a documented history of various maintenance challenges over the past few years, including multiple instances of heat and hot water complaints in 2025, water leak issues in 2025, and problems with garbage/recycling storage, mold, and pests in 2023-2024. More recent building concerns include three active facade-related violations from May 2025, documenting disrepair with cracks extending from the second floor to the parapet, posing potential safety risks.

The property has maintained an active inspection record for rodent control, though the most recent inspections in 2022 and 2023 passed successfully. While the building has not reported any bedbug infestations in the past five years (between 2020 and 2025), the recurring issues with water leaks, heating systems, and safety violations point to ongoing maintenance challenges. The Department of Buildings has documented various structural concerns, including building shaking and stability complaints in May 2025, with a building under structural monitoring status, though these specific issues were not substantiated upon inspection.
