Augrented Insights Report for 1870 Crotona Avenue

The 54-unit, 5-story building at 1870 Crotona Avenue in Tremont, owned by Frank Kploanyi, has experienced ongoing maintenance and sanitary issues since early 2025, with multiple complaints about pests and mold, particularly in June 2025, when three separate emergency complaints were filed regarding unsanitary conditions. More concerning, in May 2025, the building received multiple violations related to water leaks and paint/plaster conditions, indicating potential infrastructure and maintenance challenges.

Prior to these incidents, the building faced significant elevator service issues, with multiple complaints between 2018-2024 regarding single-device operation and no alternate service, though most inspections found no violations. The building has a documented history of pest management activity, with rodent inspections showing rat activity in early 2024, though a compliance inspection in March 2025 passed.

Previous violations from 2024 include issues with self-closing doors, paint conditions, and various maintenance matters in multiple apartments (3D, 4L, 5B, 5K). Notably, the property has consistently filed bedbug reports, with the most recent showing no active infestations between November 2023 and October 2024, following previous incidents. While some environmental violations have been resolved, including elevator-related ECB violations from 2018, there remains an active DOB violation as of December 2024 regarding failure to display energy efficiency scores.
