Augrented Insights Report for 194 Columbia Heights

194 Columbia Heights is a 4-story, 8-unit residential building in Brooklyn Heights, constructed in 1862 and currently owned by June Chisholm. The building has experienced recurring issues with maintaining proper documentation and compliance regarding bedbug inspections, with open violations in 2022, 2023, and 2024 related to the failure to file annual bedbug reports as required by HPD rules. There have been persistent concerns about the building's exterior maintenance, particularly regarding wooden cornice conditions, with multiple violations recorded in 2018 showing deterioration and missing pieces, though many of these were later dismissed by the ECB.

Recent inspections in 2025 showed the building was vacant, open, and unguarded, though no violations were found upon inspection in June 2025. The property has recorded several service requests regarding rodent issues, with the most recent complaint in October 2022 resulting in a Health Department inspection that found no violations. The building's rodent inspection history shows mixed results, with the most recent inspection in November 2022 passing, while earlier inspections in 2016 and 2012 had failed for unspecified reasons.

The building has experienced multiple Department of Buildings complaints between 2023 and 2025 regarding its vacant status, though inspections consistently found no violations. Additionally, there have been multiple Housing Maintenance Code complaints regarding fire escape safety in 2020, which were closed without violations. The property has three active violations filed in 2023-2024, though the specific nature of these violations was not detailed in the records provided.
