Augrented Insights Report for 629 Jackson Avenue

The 6-story, 42-unit tenement building at 629 Jackson Avenue in Longwood, owned by Melvin Newhouse and constructed in 1913, has experienced several maintenance and safety issues over the past few years. Most recently, in June 2025, there was an active complaint regarding insects/pests related to a mobile food vendor, while significant heat and hot water issues were reported in February 2024, warranting violations from the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD). The building has shown recurring challenges with plumbing systems, evidenced by multiple service requests and inspections in 2023-2024, including kitchen sink, bathtub, and shower issues.

The property has also faced persistent rodent problems, with inspections showing varying results between 2019 and 2024, though a compliance inspection in January 2024 passed. Recent inspections in August 2024 revealed multiple violations in apartment 2G, including issues with lead-based paint hazards, wall conditions, and plumbing fixtures, though these were subsequently addressed and certified for correction. Historical data shows the building had repeat heat/hot water problems in both 2022 and 2024, and there were multiple complaints regarding various maintenance issues including flooring, mold, and unsanitary conditions.

The building's documented history includes several heating system complaints, plumbing issues, and maintenance violations, though it has maintained a clean record regarding bedbug infestations since 2022, with no reported cases in the past three years. The property has undergone various inspections and maintenance work, including multiple rodent bait applications in 2019-2021 and two significant violation cases from 2018 and 2021 related to work without proper permits and failure to comply with correction orders, resulting in penalties. The building's permit history indicates that two permits applied for in 2018 (for electrical and plumbing work) remain in process as of 2025. The absence of bedbug infestations in recent reporting periods (2022-2024) is a notable positive aspect of the building's recent history, contrasting with the more frequent maintenance issues affecting other building systems.
