Augrented Insights Report for 1056 Sherman Avenue

The 6-story, 67-unit building at 1056 Sherman Avenue in Concourse Village, built in 1927 and currently owned by Steven Finkelstein, has experienced numerous maintenance and safety issues in recent years. Of particular concern are the building's ongoing pest problems, with multiple HPD complaints in 2025 citing unsanitary conditions including pests and mold, and a consistent pattern of rodent activity observed throughout 2024-2025, despite repeated baiting efforts.

Significant infrastructure issues have been documented, including an active ECB violation from August 2024 regarding exterior facade maintenance with bulging masonry and spalling stonework, and a 2024 violation for boiler issues requiring a spill switch installation. The building has also faced elevator service problems, receiving multiple complaints between 2020-2025 about single device operation and lack of alternate service.

Recent housing maintenance code violations indicate persistent issues affecting resident comfort and safety, such as a lack of adequate heating in apartment 2F and various maintenance problems in apartment 6E including pest infestations and water supply issues, though many of these violations have been marked as closed following inspections. The building's management has been subject to several orders and violations regarding the maintenance of common areas and emergency systems, including a partial vacate order issued in April 2024 for hazardous conditions affecting courtyard areas. While the building has maintained regular bedbug reporting compliance with zero reported infestations from 2021-2025, the building's overall condition remains concerning, with multiple active violations as of 2024-2025 and a pattern of recurring maintenance issues requiring ongoing attention and enforcement action.
