Augrented Insights Report for 1039 Simpson Street

The 6-story, 33-unit building at 1039 Simpson Street in Longwood, currently owned by 1027 Gv Llc, has experienced ongoing heating system issues in early 2025, with multiple tenant complaints about heat and hot water problems throughout February 2025, including some emergency complaints, though most were eventually closed without finding code violations. The building was constructed in 1906 as a New Law tenement and has maintained a regular pattern of work and compliance inspections over recent years.

Notably, there is one active violation regarding failure to file a benchmarking report of energy use as per Administrative Code Section 28-309.4, issued in May 2024. Recent inspections in late 2024 revealed several maintenance issues in Apartment 41, including concerns about lead-based paint, self-closing doors, and water leaks, all of which have since been resolved. The building has a documented history of rodent activity, particularly noted during inspections in 2016-2018, but no recent infestations have been reported.

The property has experienced recurring issues with work being performed without proper permits, with multiple violations and penalties issued between 2019-2025. However, the bedbug report submissions from 2020-2025 indicate very few infestations, with most years showing no incidents. The building's permit history shows regular maintenance and repair work, with several permits issued between 2019-2021 for various types of repairs and improvements, including electrical and plumbing work.
