Augrented Insights Report for 840 Washington Avenue

840 Washington Avenue is a 4-story, 13-unit New Law Tenement building located in Prospect Heights and owned by Felicia Colon. The building, constructed in 1920, has experienced persistent maintenance issues over recent years, with the most pressing concerns being a series of heat/hot water problems throughout 2025, including multiple building-wide complaints in May 2025. There are also currently open violations in Apartment 1A from 2024 involving broken ceramic tiles, defective wood floors, and a history of pest control issues with active roach violations from 2023.

The building has faced recurring infrastructure challenges, evidenced by multiple HPD complaints regarding water supply issues, unsanitary conditions, and waste management problems throughout 2025. Rodent inspections in 2025 have consistently failed, indicating ongoing pest management challenges. The property has a documented history of violations related to construction activity, particularly during 2019 when several Building Department violations were issued regarding improper work during a stop-work order, safety violations, and inadequate housekeeping at the job site.

These resulted in monetary penalties totaling $12,500. The building's mechanical systems and environmental health maintenance have also been an ongoing concern, with various violations related to heating systems, pressure inspections, and pigeon waste accumulation. Despite these issues, recent bedbug reports from 2025 show no current infestations, though there were previous occurrences in 2021-2022. The building's management has received multiple citations for failing to properly address maintenance issues, with some violations remaining open as of 2024-2025, including discrepancies in heat system maintenance access and various apartment-specific repairs.
