Augrented Insights Report for 243 Kingston Avenue

243 Kingston Avenue is a 6-story, 80-unit residential building constructed in 1910, currently owned by Marilyn Findlay. The property has experienced recurring heating and hot water issues throughout 2025, with multiple HPD complaints recorded between January and April 2025 indicating problems in both individual apartments and throughout the entire building.

Recent inspections have documented ongoing infestations, with multiple violations cited between apartments 1O, 2P, 2K, 5G, and 6D for pest issues including cockroaches as of November 2024. The building has also faced various boiler and elevator challenges, with documented violations and emergency complaints related to elevator devices in 2020 and 2022, and multiple boiler-related issues including defective gauges and flue problems in 2021 that incurred substantial fines. The property has shown persistent rodent activity between 2023 and 2024, as evidenced by multiple rodent inspection reports, though recent bedbug reports from 2025 show no infestations.

Housing Maintenance Code violations remain active as of July 2025, particularly regarding pest control. The building's maintenance history shows some responsiveness to issues, with many complaints being closed after inspections, though access issues have sometimes hampered full investigations. While some violations have been resolved, including various elevator and boiler issues in previous years, the pattern of heating system complaints and pest problems in recent months indicates ongoing maintenance challenges.
