Augrented Insights Report for 1218 Hoe Avenue

1218 Hoe Avenue is a three-story, 17-unit residential building located in East Morrisania, constructed in 1925 and currently owned by David Somerstein. The property has experienced recurring issues with heat and hot water throughout its history, with multiple emergency complaints filed between 2019 and 2023 regarding system failures affecting the entire building.

These concerns persisted into 2024, with violations noted for inadequate hot water service, particularly in apartment 336. Recent inspections have revealed several active maintenance and compliance concerns, including a potentially incomplete fire suppression system installation from August 2024 (with a $1,250 penalty), and various electrical and plumbing-related violations. The building has a track record of successful rodent control, passing most inspections between 2019 and 2024, though one initial inspection in October 2019 did not meet requirements.

Bedbug reports from 2019-2024 show limited infestation history, with only one unit affected in 2021, which was successfully treated. The Department of Buildings' inspection history shows ongoing attention to semi-annual homeless shelter inspections, with several Oath Violations served in 2023-2024, particularly concerning electrical systems and boiler maintenance. The property has also faced various violations requiring attention to electrical equipment, plumbing systems, and general building maintenance, with most issues being resolved through appropriate corrective actions.
