Augrented Insights Report for 1326 Commonwealth Avenue

The 49-unit, 6-story New Law Tenement building at 1326 Commonwealth Avenue in Parkchester, owned by Jose Benitez and constructed in 1928, has experienced recurring heating and gas supply issues throughout 2025, with multiple emergency complaints regarding heat/hot water and cooking gas problems in the entire building. Most notably, there have been at least 10 heat/hot water complaints and 4 cooking gas complaints between March and May 2025, with some complaints remaining open as of May 2025.

The building has also faced elevator-related challenges, as evidenced by multiple complaints and violations from 2020 through 2024, including recent active ECB violations from 2024 regarding elevator rope grip and emergency systems, with associated penalties. The property has shown ongoing concerns with pest management, as indicated by rodent activity reports between 2021 and 2025, with inspections in late 2024 and 2025 showing rat activity.

Housing Maintenance Code violations from December 2024 remain open for multiple apartments, including issues with water temperature exceeding 130 degrees and inadequate gas supply in apartments 1B, 1E, 2E, and 5F. The building's security infrastructure has also come under scrutiny, with open violations from December 2024 regarding defective locks and self-closing doors at the building entrance. While the property has maintained a clean record for bedbugs over the past five years, the combination of heating, gas, elevator, and rodent issues suggests ongoing maintenance challenges.
