Augrented Insights Report for 778 Union Avenue

The 28-unit, 5-story tenement building at 778 Union Avenue in Longwood, built in 1912 and currently owned by Junior Vasquez, has experienced numerous maintenance issues in recent years, with particular concern during 2025 when multiple complaints were filed on April 10th regarding heating, plumbing, doors, windows, flooring, pests, and garbage conditions. Notably, there have been recurring heating problems, with both apartment-specific and building-wide complaints. The building's maintenance history shows a pattern of infrastructure challenges, including a 2024 violation concerning the broken or defective metal cornice, multiple door/window issues, and floor damage in Apartment 20, as well as significant pest control challenges with an ongoing open violation from 2025 regarding garbage/recycling storage.

Previous inspections revealed rodent activity between 2021-2023, indicating persistent pest control issues, though a compliance inspection in November 2023 showed improvement. The building has undergone various repairs and maintenance work, with violations from 2024 showing completed corrections of issues in Apartment 20 concerning plaster surfaces, steam riser painting, and vinyl flooring. Historical data shows relatively few serious structural complaints, with only two building-wide complaints about egress and vibrations in 2023-2024 resulting in no violations.

The property has maintained compliance with bedbug reporting requirements from 2021 to 2024, showing no documented infestations. While many recent HPD complaints have been promptly addressed, the pattern of recurring heating, plumbing, and pest-related issues suggests ongoing maintenance challenges. Recent inspections have shown some improvement in certain areas, though multiple attempts by HPD inspectors to investigate complaints in 2025 were noted as incomplete, requiring further tenant reporting to ensure proper follow-up.
