Augrented Insights Report for 1248 Castle Hill Avenue

The three-unit residential building at 1248 Castle Hill Avenue in Unionport, owned by Theresa Montella, was constructed in 1925 and has experienced several concerning issues in recent years. The property has ongoing violations related to bedbug reporting requirements, with open violations recorded in 2021, 2022, 2023, and most recently in April 2024.

There are also significant structural concerns, with active Environmental Control Board violations issued in April 2022 related to defective masonry and mortar joints on both the west and north elevations of the building, including bulged masonry on the third floor, for which a $6,250 penalty was imposed. The building experienced an emergency work order in April 2022 due to defective facade conditions.

The property's maintenance history shows recurring pest control challenges, particularly regarding rodent issues, with multiple 311 service requests to the Department of Health and Mental Hygiene (DOHMH) between 2020 and 2023 concerning rodents/insects/garbage, though these were all eventually closed. While there have been regular rodent inspections from 2010 to 2015, with most passing, the recent pattern of complaints suggests an ongoing pest management challenge. Additional complaints in 2020 and 2022 regarding building maintenance and permit issues have been resolved, though it's worth noting that the response to these issues doesn't appear to have fully addressed the current violations.
