Augrented Insights Report for 3475 Knox Place

The 56-unit, 6-story New Law Tenement building at 3475 Knox Place in Norwood, owned by Joseph Gershenovest, has experienced numerous maintenance issues over recent years. The most pressing current concerns include an open door frame issue (since May 2025) and multiple unresolved paint/plaster problems, particularly affecting ceilings, as evidenced by recent emergency complaints in June 2025. The building has experienced recurring heat and hot water issues, with complaints in February 2025, including an official violation related to inadequate hot water supply in Apartment 3H from December 2024.

Further, there are significant ongoing plumbing and maintenance concerns in Apartment 4H, including multiple open violations from December 2024 involving bathtub conditions, floor issues, and various interior repairs. The property has a concerning history of rodent activity, with multiple inspections between 2023 and 2025 showing persistent rat presence, though recent bait applications were conducted. Boiler-related issues have been documented, including two complaints between 2022-2024, with an active ECB violation from 2018 regarding improper maintenance practices.

Recent environmental concerns include a June 2025 emergency mold complaint and multiple water leak reports. While there have been no bedbug infestations reported since 2019, the building's cumulative maintenance history suggests ongoing challenges with basic utilities and building systems. The property has also faced various safety and maintenance violations in recent years, including a 2023 emergency regarding fire escape conditions, though many have been resolved through inspections and repairs.
