Augrented Insights Report for 294 5th Avenue

The 7-unit, 4-story residential building at 294 5th Avenue in Park Slope, constructed in 1920, has experienced ongoing maintenance challenges, particularly regarding its heating system and building infrastructure. Most recent issues include open heat/hot water complaints from June 2025 and multiple violation citations for various building maintenance problems.

Between late 2024 and mid-2025, there have been several HPD violations requiring repairs, including issues with flooring/stairs, paint/plaster, and a significant focus on heating system problems, with both 311 and Housing Maintenance Code complaints indicating ongoing heat hot water deficiencies. The building's boiler and heating systems have been a persistent concern, with multiple Department of Buildings complaints regarding defective/inoperative boilers between 2022 and 2025, though most inspections found no violations at the time.

Environmental Control Board violations from 2018-2021 indicate historical issues with the boiler system, chimney problems, water heaters, and other critical building systems, with some current violations still showing as active. The property has also experienced various interior maintenance issues, including lighting problems, water leaks, and pest control challenges, particularly during the 2024 inspections which revealed multiple violations in Apartment 3R regarding safety equipment (smoke and carbon monoxide detectors) and ventilation systems. While there have been documented rodent issues in past years, recent bedbug reports from 2021-2023 show zero infestation cases, suggesting successful pest management in recent years.
