Augrented Insights Report for 20 Plaza St East

The 6-story, 100-unit building at 20 Plaza Street East in Prospect Heights, managed by 20 Plaza Housing Corp, has had a range of maintenance and compliance issues since its 1940 construction. Most recently, in 2024, the building experienced both pigeon waste complaints and some rodent activity, though previous rodent inspections in 2022-2023 showed mostly passing results.

The property has undergone four separate Local Law 188/17 compliance inspections between 2021 and 2023, with all passing inspections showing no violations. Two illegal after-hours work complaints were filed in October 2019, though inspections showed no violations. In terms of environmental compliance, the building faced several violations in 2018 related to fire safety equipment and door systems that resulted in fines totaling $1,250, though records show these were resolved.

More recently, there have been issues with energy efficiency reporting, including an active violation from December 2021 regarding failure to display the energy efficiency score and grade. The building has maintained an impressive record regarding bedbugs, with zero reported cases in the last eight consecutive annual filings from 2019 through 2024. Multiple permits for various maintenance work have been issued in recent years, with the most recent being from June 2024, suggesting ongoing attention to building upkeep despite the periodic rodent and sanitation issues that have emerged.
