Augrented Insights Report for 970 Prospect Avenue

970 Prospect Avenue is a 6-story, 44-unit residential building constructed in 1925 and currently owned by Nellie Figueroa. The building has experienced recurring issues with building systems in recent months, particularly in 2025, with multiple complaints regarding heat and hot water outages affecting both individual apartments and the entire building, though these issues were reportedly resolved promptly in each instance.

There are ongoing concerns about water supply problems, as evidenced by a June 2025 HPD complaint that could not be inspected, and previous issues with ceiling paint and plaster in May and June 2025 that also could not be properly inspected. The building's elevator system has been a significant concern, with multiple complaints about "No Alternate Service" between 2023 and 2025, and several associated Environmental Control Board violations indicating mechanical issues and safety concerns. In December 2024, multiple housing maintenance code violations were noted specifically for apartment 6H, including water leaks from multiple window frames, ceiling issues, and concerns about window guards and a bunkbed blocking a fire escape.

The building's maintenance history shows a pattern of moisture-related issues, with various complaints about water leaks and plaster conditions, though inspections have often been unable to confirm these problems due to access issues. The property has maintained a record of passing rodent inspections consistently from 2012 through 2025, and there have been no bedbug infestations reported in the past three years. There are currently several active violations related to energy efficiency reporting requirements, dating from 2019-2024, suggesting some ongoing administrative compliance issues.
