Augrented Insights Report for 74 Montague Street

74 Montague Street is an 8-story, 59-unit New Law tenement building located in Brooklyn Heights, built in 1910 and currently owned by Zachary Bornstein. The most pressing current issue involves recurring heating and hot water system failures, with ten documented HPD complaints between December 2024 and February 2025 reporting system outages affecting the entire building. While these complaints were typically resolved promptly, some required multiple inspections before being confirmed as corrected.

The building has experienced persistent heat and hot water system issues, with similar complaints occurring regularly throughout 2024. The building has undergone various maintenance and inspection events, including rodent activity inspections in 2024 showing mixed results (initial rat activity followed by successful compliance inspection). In 2024, multiple Housing Maintenance Code violations were resolved, primarily involving work in Apartment 7A related to water leaks and plaster repair, while 2023 violations in Apartment 2F addressed defective smoke and carbon monoxide detectors and ceiling fixtures.

The Department of Buildings records show several construction-related violations from 2018-2019 regarding tenant protection plan compliance and construction notice requirements, with associated penalties that have been resolved. Most recently, there is an active Local Law 188/17 Compliance Inspection complaint filed in September 2024, and a 2023 violation regarding failure to file the 2021 external low-pressure inspection that was dismissed. The building has maintained a zero infestation record for bedbugs across multiple annual reports from 2019-2025, though there were previously documented issues requiring eradication in 2018.
