Augrented Insights Report for 1842 Watson Avenue

1842 Watson Avenue is a three-unit, three-story residential building located in the Soundview neighborhood, constructed in 1930 and currently owned by Leonardo Delacruz. The building has experienced several significant maintenance issues, particularly noticeable during 2021, when there were multiple complaints regarding heat and hot water problems affecting the entire building in October and November, as well as various plumbing issues.

The Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD) responded to numerous complaints between April and May 2021, including concerns about flooring, multiple plumbing problems (including issues with sinks and bathtubs/showers), window safety, and door concerns, though inspections generally revealed no violations. The property holds several open violations related to safety and maintenance requirements.

As of 2024, there are violations concerning the failure to file annual bedbug reports, while a 2021 inspection identified multiple citation counts for not properly posting important safety notices regarding heating system access, gas leak procedures, smoke detector requirements, carbon monoxide detection, and inspection certificate display. Additionally, there is an active Environmental Control Board violation from 2020 regarding gas piping issues with a $1,250 penalty. The building's maintenance history shows generally positive rodent inspection results from 2014 to 2020, with the exception of a rat activity finding in December 2013, and two department of buildings complaints from 2020 and 2023 that were ultimately closed without violations.
