Augrented Insights Report for 1478 Bedford Avenue

The property at 1478 Bedford Avenue in Crown Heights is a 4-story, 6-unit old law tenement building constructed in 1910, currently managed by Stuyvesant Heights Holding LLC. The building has experienced numerous maintenance and safety issues in recent years, with the most significant cluster of problems occurring in August 2024, when multiple emergency complaints were filed and addressed, including concerns about fire escape safety, window guards, smoke and carbon monoxide detectors, and plumbing issues.

There is one apartment (3A) with particularly notable ongoing violations as of August 2024, including pest infestations (both roaches and mice), defective windows, and issues with essential safety equipment such as smoke and carbon monoxide detectors. The building has a documented history of electrical problems, including power outages and lighting issues in early 2024, as well as multiple complaints regarding doors and windows. There is a persistent pest control issue, with multiple rodent inspections showing rat activity from 2022 through 2024, and bait applications recorded throughout 2023.

Historical data shows some building code violations from 2020 related to improper vent installation and unpermitted work involving a wall-mounted AC unit, though these seem to have been resolved. The property has a pattern of access issues during inspections, with multiple complaints in 2022 unable to be verified due to lack of access. Recent inspections have confirmed ongoing maintenance challenges, including a leaky water supply system, mold issues, and various infrastructure problems that require attention.
