Augrented Insights Report for 1974 Lafontaine Avenue

1974 Lafontaine Avenue is a 6-story, 49-unit residential building constructed in 1925, currently owned by Raul Rivera. The property has experienced several recurring maintenance issues over the past few years, with the most pressing current concern being an open HPD complaint from March 2025 regarding fire escape safety. The building has a documented history of heating and hot water system problems, particularly evident in 2020-2022, though recent complaints have been promptly addressed and closed.

Notable infrastructure maintenance has included a violation in October 2023 regarding a defective self-closing door in Apartment 1D, which was certified for correction in November 2023. The building has maintained consistent compliance with bedbug reporting requirements from 2021-2025, showing zero infested units during all reporting periods. The property has undergone regular inspections for rodent control, with the most recent inspection in February 2025 passing successfully.

Historical violations related to energy efficiency reporting requirements were dismissed by February 2023. The building's water supply and plumbing issues were addressed through inspections in 2022 that resulted in no violations being found. While there have been various maintenance complaints over the years, the property management has generally responded promptly to HPD orders, as evidenced by the closure of multiple emergency complaints related to heat and hot water systems. Recent inspection patterns suggest improved maintenance responsiveness, though the outstanding fire escape safety complaint from March 2025 represents the most current unresolved issue.
