Augrented Insights Report for 1256 Clay Avenue

1256 Clay Avenue is a 6-story, 16-unit New Law Tenement building constructed in 1929, currently managed by 1256 Clay Ave Group LLC. The property has experienced recurring maintenance issues over the past three years, with the most recent significant complaint in May 2025 regarding water supply problems that could not be inspected by HPD. Recent history shows persistent plumbing and heat/hot water issues, including an emergency heating system failure in January 2024, multiple plumbing complaints in 2023-2024, and water supply problems in 2025.

The building has also faced various sanitary challenges, including a mold issue (July 2023), pest infestation (August 2024), and multiple heating system failures. The property has undergone several HPD inspections that revealed both resolved and ongoing violations. Notably, in 2023, violations were issued regarding security systems, including the need to remove illegal electromagnetic locking devices at the building entrance and provide proper mechanical locks for power outage situations.

Apartment 5C appears to have experienced multiple issues, including pest infestations (roaches and mice), though some violations from 2023 remain unresolved as of the latest inspection records. The building's rodent control measures show mixed results, with bait application documented throughout 2024 and one failed inspection for rat activity in November 2024, though a compliance pass was recorded in February 2025. Recent bedbug reports indicate relatively low activity, with only two infested units reported in August 2024, though no new infestations were recorded in subsequent reports. While some maintenance issues have been addressed promptly, the building has a pattern of recurring problems, particularly relating to water systems, heating, and pest control, which may impact resident comfort and safety.
