Augrented Insights Report for 1259 Leland Avenue

The 28-unit, 4-story New Law Tenement building at 1259 Leland Avenue in Soundview, owned by Marc Kurman, has experienced several maintenance issues in recent months. Most notably, in May 2025, HPD inspections documented multiple violations including problems with doors and windows, heavy water leaks, electrical issues, and pest concerns, all of which received emergency response classification.

Additional violations from March 2025 involved plumbing issues in bathtubs/showers, while February 2025 saw concerns about heat and hot water systems. The building has ongoing maintenance challenges, with several open violations from 2024 including water leak issues in apartment C3 and problems with self-closing doors noted during a June 2024 inspection. The property has a documented history of various maintenance issues requiring attention, including hot water temperature violations (exceeding 130 degrees) in multiple apartments, door self-closing mechanism problems, and water leaks affecting different units.

While there have been no recorded infestations of bedbugs or rats in recent years (with the most recent rodent inspection showing compliance in 2017), the building's maintenance record shows persistent issues with building systems and infrastructure. A 2019 DOB violation regarding failure to file a benchmarking report of energy use remains active. The building has regularly undergone mandatory bedbug reporting, with all annual reports since 2018 showing no infestation or eradication cases.
