Augrented Insights Report for 586 Union Street

The 4-story, 8-unit tenement building at 586 Union Street in Gowanus, owned by Mused Yahya, has experienced several concerning maintenance and structural issues over recent years. Most notably, the building is currently facing active violations regarding facade bulging and cracks, as well as issues with an exposed foundation wall that are documented as of March 2024 with associated penalties.

There is also an ongoing rodent presence, with recent inspections in 2025 and 2024 confirming rat activity, despite multiple previous inspections showing similar results. The building has a history of unsanitary conditions related to garbage storage, with complaints in 2025 and 2023, though the 2023 complaint resulted in no violations being found. The property has experienced recurring structural stability concerns, with building shaking/vibration complaints in 2019, 2021, and most recently in 2024.

Earlier violations from 2019 indicated illegal transient use of a residential unit (APT-1R), with associated fire safety and egress problems that were subsequently resolved. Apartment 4R has been documented to have several specific violations from 2022, including issues with lead paint, mold, and smoke/carbon monoxide detector problems, though records indicate these have been certified as corrected. The building's maintenance history shows regular bedbug reporting with no infestations reported since at least 2021, and while there have been multiple rodent-related complaints and inspections since 2011, suggesting ongoing pest control challenges, the most recent reports show no active infestations beyond the confirmed rat activity notifications.
