Augrented Insights Report for 1515 Selwyn Avenue

1515 Selwyn Avenue is a 6-story, 48-unit New Law Tenement building constructed in 1928, currently owned by Michael Goldstein. The building has experienced recurrent issues with its heating and hot water systems throughout 2025, with multiple tenant complaints indicating systemic problems affecting the entire building. During the summer of 2025, the building underwent several inspections resulting in observed violations related to indoor air quality and various safety concerns, including window guard issues and fire escape conditions, though many of these complaints were ultimately determined not to violate housing laws.

The property has faced multiple boiler-related complaints, with inspections occurring weekly through early 2025, though most were found to have no violations warranting further action. The boiler system has generated consistent complaints since at least late 2024, with over a dozen related complaints recorded. The building's history includes significant environmental control board (ECB) violations from 2021-2023, including failure to comply with commissioner orders and unauthorized alterations to the basement area.

There are multiple active violations related to building maintenance requirements, including failure to file necessary documentation and maintain proper energy efficiency compliance. Recent housing maintenance code violations from late 2024 include issues with pest control, wall conditions, flooring, appliances, and door/windows, with some categorized as emergency violations. The building has undergone rodent inspections revealing intermittent rat activity between 2023 and 2025, with the most recent inspection in June 2025 passing compliance. Bedbug reports have generally shown minimal infestation history, with only one reported case in 2020-2021, though the building experienced recurring issues with multiple housing maintenance code violations throughout its recent history.
