Augrented Insights Report for 592 Union Avenue

The 43-unit, 6-story New Law Tenement building at 592 Union Avenue in Longwood, owned by Joseph Fessel and built in 1926, has experienced significant maintenance challenges in recent years. Most notably, between April and June 2025, multiple complaints were filed regarding ceiling paint/plaster issues, water leaks (both slow and heavy), mold problems, and plumbing concerns involving toilets, with several violations issued that require correction. In late 2024, violations were documented in apartments 2B, 5B, and 2H related to inadequate hot water supply, and there were issues with building heating system access.

The building's electrical system underwent scrutiny in 2018-2019, with violations issued for unsafe wiring and equipment, though these were later resolved. The property has maintained a clean bedbug record for several years, with no reported infestations between 2019-2024. Recent inspections have revealed persistent rodent activity, with multiple baiting interventions noted throughout 2023-2024, though the building has not been visibly infested.

The building's management has addressed some violations, as evidenced by their closed status, including those related to discarded bulkhead doors and intercom systems. While the property has had various violations and maintenance issues, many have been resolved through inspections and repairs, though several violations from late 2024 regarding heating system access and hot water supply remain notable. The building's recent history shows a pattern of plumbing, water leakage, and ceiling maintenance issues that appear to be ongoing concerns.
