Augrented Insights Report for 147 Smith Street

The 4-story, 3-unit building at 147 Smith Street in Boerum Hill, owned by Keumcha Kim, has experienced several notable issues in recent years. Most concerning are the recurring smoking-related violations in 2025, with complaints about smoking in smoke-free areas being reported in January and April of this year.

The building has also faced indoor air quality concerns in early 2025 related to chemical vapors, and standing water issues were reported in September 2022. A significant number of housing maintenance code violations were identified in September 2022, particularly affecting Apartment 1 on the 2nd story, including problems with window guards, window frame repairs, and multiple issues with plastered surfaces and paint.

The property has demonstrated compliance with bedbug reporting requirements, with no reported infestations in the past three years. The building's recent history shows attention from various agencies, including multiple Local Law 188/17 Compliance Inspections in 2023 and 2024, though many recent complaints (such as those related to unlicensed work and various inspections) were found to have no violations warranting enforcement action. While the property has passed several inspections related to rodent control (most recently in 2020), the recurring issues with smoking violations and ongoing maintenance concerns in Apartment 1 suggest areas requiring continued attention.
