Augrented Insights Report for 148 Montague Street

The 4-story, 6-unit building at 148 Montague Street in Brooklyn Heights, owned by Russell Harkavy and dating back to 1899, has experienced several significant maintenance issues over recent years, with the most pressing concerns revolving around heat and hot water service. There were three documented instances of entire-building heat/hot water problems in 2024-2025, though one complaint was closed without access for inspection, another was resolved before inspection, and one was confirmed as restored during inspection.

The building has also faced recurring rodent issues, with the most recent inspection in March 2025 passing compliance, but showing rat activity in April 2024 and requiring bait application in 2022. Several food establishment-related complaints have been filed and addressed, including rodent/insect/garbage issues in 2025 and 2024, and a food contamination incident in 2019. The property has maintained good compliance with bedbug reporting requirements, showing zero infestations reported since 2020.

In 2021, two Class A Housing Maintenance Code violations were issued regarding the posting of housing information and gas leak procedures in common areas, though these were certified as corrected by October 2021. The building underwent two professional certification compliance audits in 2018-2019, with no violations found at the time of inspection. An ECB violation was recorded in 2022 for unauthorized work on the first floor, specifically regarding partition walls and plumbing installation, though this was ultimately resolved with no penalties imposed.
