Augrented Insights Report for 288 Sterling Place

288 Sterling Place is a 3-unit, 3-story brownstone built in 1899 in Prospect Heights, currently owned by Annamarie Nell. The building has experienced several significant structural and maintenance issues over the past few years, most notably a serious retaining wall collapse in 2021 that affected approximately 35 feet of surface area and resulted in multiple Environmental Control Board violations, including a $2,500 penalty.

This incident, which posed immediate hazards, led to additional violations for failure to certify corrections. The property has also faced recurring bedbug reporting violations, with four consecutive years (2021-2024) receiving notices for not filing the required annual bedbug reports, though the most recent 2024 report indicates no infested units.

Between 2017 and 2022, there were multiple rodent control measures taken, with several bait applications noted, though recent inspections from 2023-2025 have consistently passed without issue, suggesting improvement in pest control. Two complaints were recorded in 2021 regarding building shaking/vibrating concerns, with one requiring a vacate order that was later fully rescinded in July 2023. While the building has had its share of challenges, recent inspections and report filings indicate some progress in maintenance compliance.
