Augrented Insights Report for 1508 Bedford Avenue

The four-story, 8-unit New Law Tenement building at 1508 Bedford Avenue in Crown Heights, owned by Byron Mclean, has experienced several significant maintenance issues over the past two years (2023-2025). Most notably, there was a period of heat and hot water disruptions in early 2024 that affected multiple apartments, including documented violations for inadequate heat and hot water supply in Apartment 2.

More recently, in May 2025, there were multiple maintenance issues reported and inspected by HPD, including violations related to walls (both paint/plaster and flooring conditions) and cabinet problems. The building has also faced infrastructure challenges, with a significant water leak reported in January 2025 and ongoing issues with the boiler system, as evidenced by active ECB violations from March 2023 regarding improper boiler installation, defective components, and safety concerns, for which penalties totaling $6,050 were imposed. The property has demonstrated some progress in pest control, with the most recent bedbug report for the 2023-2024 period showing no infestations, though there were indications of rodent activity in multiple inspections between 2018 and 2025.

Recent inspections (2024 and 2025) have passed, suggesting some improvements in rodent management. The building's maintenance history shows recurring issues with basic services and infrastructure, including plumbing, heating systems, and internal finishes. Open violations as of July 2025 include heating system access (Class C violation) and multiple heating/hot water-related issues from late 2023, indicating ongoing challenges with building systems.
