Augrented Insights Report for 844 42nd Street

844 42nd Street, a 4-story New Law Tenement built in 1916 in Borough Park, contains 20 residential units and is currently owned by Hyman Schattner. The building has experienced recurring heating and hot water issues throughout 2025, with multiple complaints from May 2-7, 2025, affecting both individual apartments and the entire building, though most were resolved promptly with HPD involvement.

Other recent maintenance concerns include multiple violations issued in January 2025 related to paint/plaster, door/window issues, and plumbing concerns, along with earlier complaints from January 2025 regarding wall and window frame conditions. The building has had several serious safety concerns documented between 2023-2024, including violations regarding self-closing doors, glass pane repairs, and a 2024 violation related to the absence of a required gas leak notice.

Historical records show the building's maintenance issues have persisted over time, with documented inspections revealing violations related to entry doors, stair floors, and various interior conditions. In recent years, the building experienced multiple emergency heat and hot water complaints, and while there are no current bedbug infestations reported through 2024, there were compliance failures noted during recent rodent inspections in late 2024, indicating possible pest control challenges. The property has an active ECB violation from 2018 regarding failure to comply with previous orders, and a pending violation from 2023 related to external low-pressure inspection filing requirements, suggesting ongoing regulatory compliance issues.
