AI summary · updated June 2026

Located in the Belmont neighborhood, 2191 Washington Avenue is a 5-story, 48-unit residential building constructed in 2008 and currently owned by Damon Davis. The property has experienced recurring heating and hot water issues, with seven documented complaints between 2021 and 2024, affecting both individual apartments and the entire building. The most recent heat/hot water complaint was filed in February 2024. In addition to these ongoing maintenance concerns, the building has faced several safety-related issues that require attention. A recent October 2024 inspection revealed multiple violations, including the need to repair or replace self-closing doors and latches in various stairwells and public areas, and the presence of a mouse infestation in apartment 5D. Two open violations remain from this inspection, specifically regarding the need to repair stair door latches and replace missing carbon monoxide detectors in apartment 5D.

The building has a documented history of garbage/recycling storage issues, particularly in late 2021 and early 2022, though violations were not issued in all instances. While the property has maintained a consistent record of passing rodent inspections since 2019, with the most recent inspection in May 2025 marked as "Passed," and there have been no reported bedbug infestations in the past three filing periods from 2022 to 2024. The building's mechanical systems have been a point of concern, with violations recorded in 2023 for failure to file required external low-pressure inspections, though these violations remain active as of the latest review. A 2024 elevator complaint regarding single device service was closed with no violations found during inspection.
