Augrented Insights Report for 681 St Marks Avenue

The 7-unit, 3-story building at 681 St. Marks Avenue in Crown Heights, Brooklyn, owned by Mark McPherson, has experienced several noteworthy events since 2021, with the most recent developments focusing on pest management and safety compliance. The property has undergone multiple rodent inspections, with the most recent in February 2025 showing no issues, though there was recorded rat activity in March and February 2023 that prompted bait application.

Annual bedbug reports have been consistently filed, with the most recent submission in July 2024 indicating no infested, eradicated, or re-infested units during the 2022-2023 period. The building underwent significant construction work in 2022 that triggered multiple violations, including concerns about safety measures, debris management, and egress obstruction that resulted in fines totaling $4,875, though all these violations have since been resolved. Despite these violations, inspections related to these issues in 2024 have shown no immediate safety concerns.

The most recent health inspection in September 2024 addressed a rodent complaint but found no violations, and the property has generally passed subsequent rodent inspections. There was also a documented indoor air quality issue in July 2022 related to construction dust. The building has maintained compliance with rat inspections, passing all recent assessments and showing attention to pest management as evidenced by the 2024 bedbug report showing no infestations. A permit for exterior work was issued in August 2023, indicating ongoing maintenance of the property’s exterior.
