Augrented Insights Report for 1512 Townsend Avenue

1512 Townsend Avenue is a 6-story, 105-unit New Law tenement building constructed in 1926, currently owned by Jacqueline Tom. The building has experienced several significant maintenance and safety issues in recent months (2025), including violations related to carbon monoxide and smoke detectors, a broken window guard, and pest infestations. Multiple housing maintenance code violations were documented, with particular attention to problems in unit 2R that included pest infestations, water leaks, and issues with plastered surfaces and doors.

The building has a recurring rodent activity problem, with inspections in 2023-2025 consistently showing rat activity, though the most recent inspections in 2024 showed some compliance passes. Recent complaints have been concentrated on safety systems and pest control, with multiple HPD violations issued in June 2025 related to fire safety equipment. Earlier violations from 2024 included heating issues that affected the entire building, though these were eventually resolved.

The building has had previous bedbug incidents, though recent reports from 2022-2024 show no current infestations. Maintenance access for inspections has been a recurring issue, as evidenced by multiple complaints in 2025 where inspectors were unable to gain entry to perform required checks. The property has passed regular rodent inspections in recent years, although they consistently show evidence of rat activity, indicating an ongoing pest control challenge. The most recent housing maintenance code complaints as of June 2025 include open issues regarding door/window conditions and ongoing pest management needs.
