Augrented Insights Report for 221 East Tremont Avenue

The 4-unit, 3-story tenement building at 221 East Tremont Avenue in the Mount Hope neighborhood has experienced significant maintenance and safety issues in recent years, particularly during 2023-2024. Most notably, there are multiple open violations from October 2023 related to Apartment 3E, including issues with pests (mice and roaches), mold, missing smoke detectors, missing carbon monoxide detector, and unauthorized lock on a fire escape door. The building has faced persistent rodent issues, with several inspections between 2022-2025 showing rat activity, though the most recent inspection in May 2025 passed successfully.

There are also documented concerns about unauthorized unit conversions, with violations from 2020 (currently active) regarding illegal SRO conversions and unauthorized washer/dryer installations, along with incomplete bedbug reporting requirements from 2020. Recent health and safety concerns include multiple 311 complaints to HPD, with notable issues including water supply problems, electricity outages, window and cabinet problems, and unsanitary conditions including mold. The building has undergone several inspections by the Department of Health and Mental Hygiene, with recent incidents in 2024 involving food safety concerns.

While some issues have been resolved, such as various HPD complaints from 2023-2024, there remain several active violations as of the latest available data. The property owner, Sang Kim, has faced multiple fines and penalties, including a recent $6,000 fine related to failure to comply with a prior order. The most recent bedbug report from 2025 indicates some activity with two units being treated, though there were no new infestations reported during the 2023-2024 reporting period.
