Augrented Insights
AI summary · updated June 2026

3545 Ely Avenue is a three-story, three-unit residential building constructed in 1987, currently owned by Diana Givans and located in the Edenwald neighborhood. The building's recent history has been notably marked by recurring bedbug infestation issues, with the most recent annual bedbug report (filed June 11, 2024) indicating a complete infestation across all three units between November 2022 and October 2023, though all were reportedly eradicated. This pattern follows a year of no reported infestations (2021-2022) and precedes a series of violations in 2020-2021 for not filing the required annual bedbug reports, though these violations appear to have been resolved. The building's current and recent violations primarily relate to the failure to file mandatory bedbug reports under Housing Maintenance Code § HMC, with similar violations occurring annually from 2021 through 2024, though these have been addressed in subsequent filings.

The most recent bedbug report shows a concerning pattern of re-infestation, with all units experiencing bedbug problems during the reporting period. Prior to this, there was a significant improvement between 2020-2021 when there were no reported infestations. The building has maintained compliance with filing annual bedbug reports since 2023, though this has been necessary due to previous violations. The property's three units are currently classified as complete eradications, but the recent history suggests ongoing monitoring and attention to pest control measures may be required. While there have been no other documented violations or incidents affecting safety or resident experience in the available records, the frequency and recurrence of bedbug issues over the past several years represent the primary concern regarding this property's maintenance history.
