Augrented Insights Report for 1546 Selwyn Avenue

1546 Selwyn Avenue is a 6-story, 69-unit New Law Tenement building constructed in 1927 and currently owned by Sam Klein. The property has experienced significant maintenance issues in recent years, with particularly concerning violations and complaints emerging in 2024-2025. Most notably, there are active Environmental Control Board violations regarding exterior maintenance and facade conditions, including broken windows, bulging walls, and masonry cracks, with penalties totaling $3,750 imposed. Housing Maintenance Code violations in 2024 included a partial vacate order due to hazardous conditions and reports of rodent and insect infestations in apartment 2F.

The building has shown persistent problems with its elevator system, with multiple complaints between 2022-2025 regarding service issues and lack of alternate service. Recent inspections and complaints in 2025 have focused on various building maintenance issues, including unsanitary conditions, mold, doors/windows requiring repairs, and flooring problems. The building has also faced plumbing and water supply issues, with emergency complaints logged in mid-2025. While the property has passed some inspections and resolved certain violations, there are several active violations as of 2024-2025 that indicate ongoing maintenance challenges. The building's management has received citations for obstructed fire escapes and self-closing door issues, though many of these violations have been subsequently closed.

The property has maintained a record of zero bedbug infestations in recent annual reports, though rodent inspections have shown variable results, with several instances of rat activity reported between 2024-2025. The building's recent history from 2023-2025 reveals a pattern of recurring maintenance issues, particularly regarding water supply systems, interior conditions, and facade maintenance. While some violations have been addressed through inspections and repairs, multiple active violations and service complaints suggest ongoing challenges with building upkeep. Recent 311 complaints and Housing Maintenance Code violations show similar patterns of maintenance issues, particularly in 2025, with multiple complaints requiring HPD inspections and resulting in violations needing correction. Please note, while this report summarizes significant events and issues based on available data, it does not necessarily reflect the current condition of the building as of July 2025, nor does it provide specific recommendations or opinions regarding the property.
