Augrented Insights Report for 494 Prospect Place

494 Prospect Place, a 4-story, 8-unit New Law tenement built in 1915 and currently owned by Gamal Hasan, has experienced numerous maintenance and safety issues in recent years. The building has ongoing violations related to safety requirements, including the need for proper notices regarding carbon monoxide detectors and smoke detector requirements, as well as a broken window counterbalance in Apartment 2F.

Multiple emergency complaints were filed between August 2023 and April 2024 regarding window frames and panes, particularly throughout late 2023, and there were several heat and hot water complaints impacting both individual apartments and the entire building during the same period, with some resulting in violations. The building's maintenance history shows persistent rat activity, with multiple bait applications in 2024-2025 and several compliance inspections showing continued issues.

A significant concern is the failure to file required external low-pressure inspections from 2018 through 2023, with multiple active violations as of September 2024, and previously issued violations for not filing the 2017 annual boiler inspection. The 494 Prospect Place building has also accrued new violations in 2024, including improper storage of household items in public areas on both the first and second stories, and issues related to boiler room access.
