Augrented Insights Report for 649 Prospect Place

649 Prospect Place is a 16-unit, 4-story New Law Tenement building located in Crown Heights, constructed in 1905 and currently owned by Rachel Phipps. The building has experienced recurrent heating issues, with the most recent heat/hot water complaint occurring in February 2025 affecting the entire building, though this was reportedly resolved during inspection. The property has faced multiple maintenance challenges, including significant rodent activity between 2023-2025 and persistent sanitation issues.

Most notably, in September 2024, there were active ECB violations related to construction lead dust and inadequate housekeeping in apartment C2, with fines totaling $16,250. The building has also shown patterns of unsanitary conditions, with complaints about mold and pest infestations, particularly during 2021-2024, including multiple violations requiring correction. Recent inspections and complaints show a mix of resolved and ongoing issues, including a construction lead dust complaint from September 2024 that remains in progress as of October 2023.

The building's maintenance history reveals a series of emergency and non-emergency complaints, particularly in 2021, covering various issues from plumbing to electrical systems. The property has complied with some major requirements, such as the 2025 rodent inspection passing rate, but has faced challenges with timely violation resolution, as evidenced by a November 2024 violation regarding certification of correction on immediately hazardous violations. Bedbug reporting shows sporadic issues, with the most recent report from January 2025 indicating one infested unit that was subsequently eradicated. The building underwent several safety inspections in late 2024, with mixed results including some stop work orders and OATH violations, though no significant violations were found in the tenant safety inspection conducted in October 2024.
