949 Faile Street is a 5-story, 42-unit New Law Tenement building located in Longwood, built in 1919 and currently owned by Christina Pimentel. The building has experienced recurring heat and hot water issues, with documented complaints in both 2025 and 2024 affecting the entire building. In 2024, there were significant concerns regarding unit 5F, including multiple Housing Maintenance Code violations for mold (March 2024) and the failure to maintain smoke and carbon monoxide detectors (November 2024).
The building's elevator maintenance has been problematic, with complaints in late 2024 regarding a single device and no alternate service, resulting in an active Environmental Control Board violation with a $625 penalty as of October 2024. Other notable issues include persistent pests (with multiple unsanitary condition complaints) and water damage, though these appear to have been addressed according to HPD records. The property has maintained regular bedbug reporting compliance since 2020, showing no infestations in recent years except for one instance in 2018-2019 involving three units.
Rodent inspections conducted between 2010 and 2017 consistently passed. Recent HVAC and appliance issues were reported and resolved, including a gas range complaint in 2025. While the building has experienced various maintenance challenges, most have been addressed through proper channels, as evidenced by the closure of numerous service requests and violations. The building's current status shows continued attention to safety requirements, with recent complaints being promptly investigated and resolved by the Department of Housing Preservation and Development.
