Augrented Insights Report for 1735 Lafayette Avenue

1735 Lafayette Avenue, a 4-story, 32-unit New Law Tenement built in 1929 and currently owned by Margaret Wertzberger, has experienced a significant number of maintenance and safety issues in recent months. Most notably, in May 2025, there were multiple service requests and Housing Maintenance Code complaints regarding safety systems including smoke and carbon monoxide detectors, along with complaints about heat/hot water, electrical systems, plumbing, and various appliances.

HPD inspections during this period were generally unable to gain access to units for verification of these issues. The building has a documented history of maintenance challenges, particularly evident in late 2024 when apartments C1 and C8 were cited for several violations including water leaks, mold conditions, and plumbing issues. Apartment C8 also experienced pest control problems with a cockroach infestation noted in September 2024.

Additional concerns have been raised through the Department of Buildings, including electrical wiring issues in 2020 (with exposed wiring and unapproved electrical equipment) and structural concerns regarding retaining walls. The building has shown persistent rodent activity in recent years, with multiple inspections indicating the presence of rats between 2019 and 2023. While the property has maintained a zero infestation record for bedbugs over the past five years (2019-2024), the recurring maintenance issues and safety system failures suggest ongoing challenges with building systems and resident services.
