Augrented Insights Report for 736 St Johns Place

The 4-story, 8-unit tenement at 736 St. John's Place in Crown Heights, owned by David Schwartz, has been in operation since 1931. The building has experienced recurring maintenance and safety issues, particularly in recent years.

Most notably, there is an active violation regarding overdue external low-pressure inspections from 2018 through 2022 that remains unresolved as of June 2023. In May 2023, multiple violations were documented, including inadequate lighting, construction material encumbrances, and defective fire retardant materials in the west section fire passageway. The building has also faced ongoing heat and hot water system issues, with emergency complaints recorded in January 2019, though these were reportedly resolved during inspections.

Recent rodent inspections indicate persistent rat activity, with the most recent being recorded in May 2025. The building's safety features have been under scrutiny, with multiple violations related to fire safety and general maintenance, including defective self-closing doors, loose wood treads on stairs, and inadequate emergency lighting. While the building has maintained an active bedbug prevention program with no reported infestations in the past six years (2019-2025), the ongoing maintenance violations and rodent issues suggest continuing challenges with building upkeep. The property also has a historical pattern of smoking violations, with two complaints filed in 2019 and a more recent violation in 2024.
