Augrented Insights Report for 2487 Grand Avenue

The 41-unit, 5-story building at 2487 Grand Avenue in Kingsbridge, owned by Barry Singer, has experienced a series of concerning maintenance issues throughout 2024-2025, particularly in areas affecting resident comfort and safety. The property, built in 1920 and classified as a New Law Tenement, is currently facing active violations related to building maintenance, including missing bricks and cracks on the 5th floor front exposure, with a penalty imposed of $6,280.00. Recent inspections in 2025 revealed multiple complaints about unsanitary conditions, including both pest and mold issues, though these did not result in HPD violations.

The building has experienced recurring water-related problems, with multiple complaints regarding leaks and plumbing issues throughout 2025, including problems with sinks and water supply systems. There are also several active Department of Buildings violations from 2023-2024 regarding energy efficiency reporting requirements that remain unresolved. The property's history includes significant structural concerns, particularly in May 2024 when complaints were made about building shaking/vibrating and structural stability, prompting a monitoring situation that required an engineer's report.

December 2024 inspections revealed various housing maintenance code violations, including issues with paint and fire retardant materials in common areas, problems with a ceiling light fixture in Apartment B8, and water leak issues affecting multiple floors. While the building has maintained a bedbug-free status based on annual inspections from 2019 through 2024, it has experienced ongoing rodent issues, with multiple inspections between 2023 and 2025 confirming rat activity, though recent bait applications appear to be in progress. The property is currently subject to multiple open housing maintenance code violations, particularly affecting Apartment B8, including issues with plumbing fixtures, ceiling damage, and general maintenance concerns.
