Augrented Insights Report for 78 Prospect Park West

78 Prospect Park West is a 6-story, 41-unit residential building constructed in 1920 and currently owned by Zachary Kadden. The building has experienced ongoing heating and hot water system challenges throughout 2025, with multiple emergency complaints filed between January and May of 2025, including seven identical complaints in May that required HPD inspections. These heating system issues appear to be the most persistent problem facing the building currently.

The property underwent several inspections in late 2024, revealing maintenance issues including water leaks, fire retardant material concerns, and various public hall maintenance needs, though most violations were subsequently closed. In 2024, inspections of apartment 3D identified multiple issues requiring attention, including problems with self-closing doors and entrance locks. The elevator system has been a focus of regulatory attention, with multiple violations recorded in 2019-2020 related to safety features, though these were eventually resolved.

The building has maintained a clean record regarding pest control, with no reported bedbug infestations in the past five reporting periods (2020-2024), and passed recent rodent inspections in 2022 and 2018. While there have been occasional violations related to energy reporting requirements, these have typically been resolved promptly. The most recent environmental concern is an open complaint from March 2025 regarding construction lead dust in common areas.
