Augrented Insights Report for 1196 Brook Avenue

1196 Brook Avenue, a 5-story, 20-unit New Law tenement built in 1909 and owned by Nick Vuksana, has experienced persistent heat and hot water issues throughout its recent history. Most notably, there have been four emergency heat/hot water complaints in the past 12 months (2024-2025), with the most recent occurring in January 2025 involving the entire building.

The building has also faced multiple maintenance challenges, including a November 2024 violation for window AC units on the 3rd and 4th floors missing support brackets and being improperly installed in fire escape windows, as documented by the Department of Buildings in October 2023. The property has a documented history of various maintenance and safety concerns, particularly in 2022, when violations were issued for mold (both in Apartment 2D and B4), water leaks, and door/window issues.

Apartment 2D received violations in December 2024 for paint and mold issues, while Apartment B4 had multiple violations in 2022, including those related to mold, paint, door maintenance, and a fire escape window blockage. The building's management has generally addressed violations, with most being certified as resolved, though there remains an active violation from 2019 regarding a missed technical report filing. On the pest control front, the building has maintained a record of zero bedbug infestations in the past five reporting periods (2019-2025), though there were issues with rat activity in 2017-2019 based on rodent inspection records.
