Augrented Insights Report for 984 Simpson Street

The 15-unit, 5-story New Law Tenement building at 984 Simpson Street in Longwood, owned by Michael Padernacht, has experienced several significant maintenance and safety issues over the past three years. Most recently, in March 2025, there is an open complaint regarding unsanitary conditions related to garbage/recycling storage, while a heat/hot water issue affecting the entire building was resolved.

In January 2025, multiple inspections were conducted regarding various issues including plumbing, door conditions, and safety concerns, though no violations were found. The building has had recurring heat/hot water problems, with complaints in both December 2024 and 2025, and several other maintenance issues including mold, pests, window guard safety, and radiator conditions.

The building has some concerning open violations as of September 2023, including an active ECB violation related to exterior maintenance issues (cracked and spalling cement stucco) issued in April 2022, and three active violations for failure to file external low-pressure inspections in 2020, 2021, and 2022. While bedbug reports for 2023-2024 and 2024-2025 show no infestations, the building's rodent inspection history presents a mixed picture, with recent inspections in 2024 showing failed compliance for "Other Reasons" and identified rat activity in November 2023, though previous years from 2012-2019 had passed inspections. The building has also had various safety-related violations to address, including issues with vestibule entrance doors and window guard safety, though many past violations have been successfully resolved.
