Augrented Insights Report for 1049 Bergen Street

The four-story, 1931 Crown Heights tenement at 1049 Bergen Street, currently owned by Joel Berkowitz, has experienced a significant number of maintenance issues in recent years, particularly in 2024-2025. Most concerning are the multiple reports of unsanitary conditions, specifically recurring mold problems, and persistent water leaks, with four complaints about slow leaks and multiple instances of mold reported between February and April 2025. The building also faced heat and hot water issues in January 2024, along with several housing maintenance violations related to door closures and fire safety systems identified in July 2024, particularly affecting Apartments 1 and 4.

The building's administrative history shows consistent rodent activity, with inspections in 2024-2025 revealing variable results between passing compliance inspections and indicating rat activity. In 2021, during construction work, multiple safety violations were recorded regarding worker protections and building maintenance, including heat and hot water violations in occupied units, though these have since been resolved. The property has maintained an active compliance history with Local Law 188/17 inspections and has regularly filed bedbug reports showing no infestations from 2020 through 2024.

Recent inspections in 2025 confirmed rodent compliance and past issues with mold and water leaks were documented consistently throughout 2024-2025. The building has undergone several permit processes under job number 340731499, initiated in 2021, with multiple permits issued or currently in process through 2023-2025. While many violations have been resolved, there appears to be an ongoing pattern of water and moisture-related issues, most recently documented in 2025 complaints. The building's management has generally responded to violations and complaints, with many issues being addressed through inspections, though some April 2025 complaints required re-filing by tenants for proper inspection follow-up.
