Augrented Insights Report for 2657 Decatur Avenue

The five-story tenement building at 2657 Decatur Avenue in Fordham, owned by Sam Stahl, has experienced significant recurring maintenance issues, particularly with water systems and heating. Most notably, between December 2024 and March 2025, there were multiple heat and hot water complaints, affecting both individual apartments and the entire building, though HPD inspections found no legal violations in some cases.

Of particular concern are the five active emergency water leak complaints from June 2025, suggesting ongoing plumbing issues. The building has also experienced various other maintenance problems, including electrical outages, water leaks, and ceiling damage complaints, with some issues persisting despite HPD's inability to complete inspections.

The property has a mixed record regarding habitability concerns; while there have been no reported bedbug infestations in the past four years, multiple rodent activity inspections between 2018 and 2024 have documented continued pest challenges, with the most recent inspections in 2024 showing rat activity as a compliance failure. Several housing maintenance code violations were documented in late 2024, particularly affecting apartment 1B, including issues with heating system notices, mold, window repairs, and water temperature. The building's age (built in 1915) and history of maintenance issues suggest ongoing challenges with building systems and infrastructure, though some violations from 2020-2021 were resolved according to DOB records.
