Augrented Insights Report for 166 Smith Street

The 8-unit, 4-story building at 166 Smith Street in Cobble Hill, owned by Chris Menziuso and constructed in 1930, has experienced several significant maintenance and compliance issues over the past few years. Most notably, the building has undergone multiple inspections and faced violations related to bedbug reporting requirements, with open violations in 2022, 2023, and most recently in April 2024 under Housing Maintenance Code (HMC) § HMC requiring annual bedbug report filings. The property has also encountered several Department of Buildings (DOB) compliance inspections under Local Law 188/17 between 2023-2024, most recently in August 2024, where the inspector was unable to gain access on the first attempt.

Historical records reveal recurring rodent activity concerns, with multiple inspections showing rat activity between 2011-2021. The building's inspection history reveals some persistent maintenance challenges, including violations for failure to file annual boiler inspection reports in 2019 and 2020 (both dismissed). However, recent bedbug reporting filings for the period of 2022-2023 show no infested dwelling units, indicating some progress in pest management.

A 311 complaint related to food safety was filed in October 2021 and closed in June 2024, though its relevance to residential conditions is limited. The inspection records from 2023 show multiple tenant safety inspections between March and April 2023, all of which found no violations warranting enforcement action. While the building has had its share of compliance issues, including the need for improved bedbug report filing, recent years have shown a pattern of violations being addressed and dismissed, suggesting ongoing attention to regulatory requirements.
