Augrented Insights Report for 299 5th Avenue

The 16-unit, 4-story, 1920 OLD LAW TENEMENT building at 299 5th Avenue in Park Slope, currently owned by Jakob Worley, has experienced several recurring maintenance and pest control issues over recent years. Most notably, there has been an ongoing problem with rodent activity, with multiple complaints and inspections between 2023 and 2024 showing persistent rat activity despite city inspections. The building has also faced repeated issues with garbage and recycling storage conditions, particularly in 2024, with multiple complaints filed with HPD, though no violations were ultimately issued.

In 2024, there were also complaints about pavement conditions outside the building. The building has a history of various maintenance violations and safety concerns dating back to 2021, including a heat/hot water issue in Apartment 4C, concerns about broken mechanical air vents and water leaks in Apartment 1A, and multiple violations related to electrical work. There have been specific safety concerns, such as blocked fire escape egress due to air conditioning units in 2022. The property has undergone several inspections related to illegal conversions and occupancy issues, particularly regarding cellar level concerns, though inspectors were often unable to gain access during these inspections.

The building's record shows active compliance with bedbug reporting requirements, with no active infestations reported in the most recent filings for 2023-2024, though there was one instance of infestation in 2022. More recent records from 2023-2024 indicate improved compliance with some maintenance issues, such as the closure of heating violations, and the building passed recent bedbug inspections. However, the persistent rodent activity remains a significant ongoing concern. The building's owners have also faced various housing maintenance code complaints, including those related to pavement conditions and unsanitary storage practices, though these complaints were generally resolved without major penalties.
