Augrented Insights Report for 1918 8th Avenue

The 3-story, 6-unit residential building at 1918 8th Avenue in Windsor Terrace, owned by Gamal Hanaif and constructed in 1931, has experienced several significant events in recent years, most notably a fire incident in June 2024 that caused substantial damage to the building, particularly affecting apartments 3L and 3R, with reports of damaged walls, charred joists, and possible roof issues. Following the fire, the building was placed under structural monitoring, and several violations were issued regarding the fire-damaged areas and the non-compliance status of the structure. The building has also faced multiple maintenance challenges, including a series of 311 complaints in early 2023 related to unsanitary conditions (pests and mold), plumbing issues, and a 2024 power outage.

Recent Housing Maintenance Code violations (September 2024) highlight various issues in apartments 2L and 2R, including problems with doors, windows, gas supply, and ceiling surfaces. The property underwent inspections following several complaints about building shaking and structural stability concerns throughout 2024, with some complaints noting difficulty in obtaining access for inspections. Notably, two complaints regarding failure to comply with vacate orders were recorded in October 2024.

An inspection in late 2024 noted issues with doors, paint/plaster conditions, and stairway maintenance, with multiple emergency and non-emergency categories of violations. The building's basement area has been a particular point of concern, with violations recorded for unauthorized bathroom and kitchen installations. Despite these challenges, the building has maintained a clean record for bedbug infestations over the past five years, with no reported instances in the most recent filing period.
