The 47-unit, 6-story building at 3215 Olinville Avenue, owned by Sol Agosto, has experienced several significant maintenance issues in recent years, particularly concentrated in 2024-2025. Most notably, there were multiple complaints in April 2025 regarding heating/hot water, cooking gas, appliance issues, intercom problems, and pest infestations, for which HPD was unable to complete inspections. The building has several open violations from 2020-2024, including ongoing issues in apartment 2E such as plumbing problems in the bathroom shower, broken plastered surfaces in the kitchen, defective door hinges, and various maintenance needs that relate to water leaks and painting requirements.

The most recent bedbug report (2024-2025) indicates no current infestations, though there was a significant outbreak affecting 46 units in 2021. The building has also faced elevator service issues, with complaints in 2020 and 2022 about being out of service, and there are ongoing concerns about fire escape maintenance as evidenced by a 2022 emergency work order. Environmental Control Board violations from 2020-2021 indicate problems with facade maintenance and elevator monitoring systems, though these have been marked as resolved. The property has undergone regular rodent inspections, passing in 2018 and 2022, with a failure in 2015.

Recent housing maintenance code violations (2024) show the building has received multiple violations that require correction, particularly affecting apartment 2E. The pattern of complaints and violations suggests persistent maintenance challenges, particularly affecting basic services and building systems. While some issues have been marked as resolved through various inspections and repairs, there remains a notable number of open violations as of the most recent data. The building's history shows some periods of effective pest control and maintenance compliance, but also significant recurring issues that impact resident comfort and safety.
