Augrented Insights Report for 486 College Avenue

The two-family residential building at 486 College Avenue, owned by Michael Cota, was constructed in 1930 and has experienced several concerning issues in recent years. Most notably, there are currently open violations related to bedbug reporting for the years 2021-2024, and the building is facing active ECB violations from March 2022 regarding unauthorized conversion from a three-family to a four-family dwelling, improper storage of combustible materials, and unpermitted construction work in the cellar.

Recent and recurring maintenance issues include a mold problem reported in December 2024 that HPD was unable to inspect, a significant water leak in late 2024, and multiple heat/hot water complaints in 2021 that required intervention. The building has experienced three rodent activity incidents according to inspections in 2023, and though historical records show good compliance prior to 2023, this recent pattern raises concerns about pest management.

An electrical power outage was reported in 2021, and there were previous heat/hot water issues in 2018 that required emergency responses. The property has also had a documented history of bedbug infestations between 2018-2019, though subsequent reports from 2019-2020 show no active infestations.
