Augrented Insights Report for 148 4th Avenue

148 4th Avenue is a 4-story, 7-unit residential building constructed in 1931 and owned by Angel Rodriguez. The Gowanus tenement has experienced several maintenance issues over recent years, with the most current concerns being a water leak (April 2025) that HPD could not inspect, and multiple paint/plaster issues (March 2025) involving walls and door frames, which were inspected but not found to violate HPD housing laws.

The building has a documented history of various maintenance challenges, including a heat/hot water outage in October 2022 that prevented HPD from conducting inspections, multiple paint and plaster complaints throughout 2022-2025, and several plumbing-related issues. Significantly, there is an active Department of Buildings Environmental Control Board violation (as of 2022) regarding obstructed emergency exits on the 4th floor, associated with household furniture, wooden boxes, and gym equipment, with a penalty of $6,250.

The property has maintained a bedbug-free record since 2020, with no reported infestations in the past five filing periods. The building's history shows sporadic rodent activity between 2014 and 2019, though recent inspections have passed. Various permits have been issued for the property between 2019-2020, suggesting regular maintenance and compliance efforts, though specific details of the permitted work are not provided in the available data.
