Augrented Insights Report for 2036 Cruger Avenue

The 6-story, 43-unit building at 2036 Cruger Avenue in the Bronxdale neighborhood, owned by Joel Follman, has experienced significant maintenance challenges over the past two years. Most notably, there are persistent rodent issues, with multiple inspections (2023-2025) showing rat activity, including a recent inspection in June 2025 that confirmed violations requiring follow-up inspections. The building has also faced recurring heat and hot water problems, with multiple complaints and violations in early 2025 and emergency response from HPD.

Recent plumbing issues have been particularly problematic, with violations documented in April 2025 concerning bathtubs, showers, and toilets, as well as water leaks. The property has active elevator maintenance concerns, with violations related to single device service and no alternate service dating back to 2024-2025, and a current open maintenance complaint as of June 2025. Structural issues have been documented, including a Class C violation from July 2024 regarding unsafe exterior conditions on the west elevation with spalling mortar and cracks.

Various housing maintenance code violations were issued in late 2024 against apartment 6A, including problems with the radiator cover, wood floor, bathroom walls, and roof leaks. Environmental Control Board violations from 2024 noted problems with door maintenance, lobby storage, and elevator operation, with some penalties still outstanding. The building's management has shown some responsiveness to issues, with multiple violations being certified as corrected, though several remain active as of the latest data in 2025. The property has consistently filed bedbug reports showing no infestations between 2021 and 2024, suggesting effective pest management in this area, though rodent problems persist despite multiple bait applications and inspections by health authorities.
