Augrented Insights Report for 715 East 242nd Street

The two-story, four-unit New Law Tenement building at 715 East 242nd Street in Wakefield, owned by Sheron Gayle, has a number of concerning maintenance and compliance issues on record. Most notably, there is an ongoing Department of Health and Mental Hygiene complaint from September 2023 regarding construction lead dust in common areas and apartments, which remains unresolved as of July 2025.

The building has multiple consecutive years of violations related to bedbug reporting requirements, with this particular violation appearing annually from 2021 through 2024, though the most recent bedbug report from May 2025 indicates no infested units during the 2023-2024 filing period. Additionally, the property has failed rodent inspections on three occasions between 2022-2023, suggesting ongoing pest control challenges. The building's history also includes some unrelated incidents, such as a complaint about work without a permit in September 2023 (which was not substantiated upon inspection) and a parking violation case from 2020 involving illegally parked vehicles, for which the owner was fined $1,250.

This violation was resolved, with no balance due on the penalty. While the bedbug reporting violations have been consistent, the most recent official documentation indicates some improvement in this area, with no reported infestations in the latest filing period. However, the combination of unresolved lead dust complaints and failed rodent inspections suggests ongoing environmental maintenance challenges within the building.
