Augrented Insights Report for 1161 Sherman Avenue

1161 Sherman Avenue is a 5-story, 42-unit residential building constructed in 1922, currently owned by David Somerstein. The property has experienced persistent water-related issues in 2025, with three open complaints for heavy water leaks and one for a slow water leak since June 2025, following five water leak complaints in May 2025.

Other ongoing maintenance concerns include problems with doors, flooring, and ceiling surfaces. The building's history shows significant habitation challenges in apartment 1 during early 2023, with multiple violations including rodent infestation (Class C violation), gas supply issues, and various repair needs such as broken floor tiles, window frame damage, and bathroom fixtures requiring attention.

Although the property has had several bedbug incidents between 2017-2022, the most recent reports for 2023-2024 indicate no active infestations, and recent rodent inspections (2024-2025) have generally passed, except for a failed inspection in October 2023. The building has open violations from late 2024 related to stored bicycles under public hall stairs, and in 2023, there was a confirmed case of unpermitted electrical work in apartment 1 during renovation, resulting in a penalty of $800. The property has had multiple door-related complaints throughout 2025, with various emergency and non-emergency statuses indicating ongoing maintenance challenges.
