Augrented Insights Report for 1248 Union Street

1248 Union Street is a two-family house located in Crown Heights, built in 1930 and currently owned by Linda Gallo. The property has experienced several concerning issues over recent years, particularly in 2018-2019 when significant violations were documented regarding illegal conversion of the cellar space, including the installation of unauthorized living quarters with full-height partitions, bathroom, and kitchen facilities with gas appliances.

During this period, multiple citations were issued for occupancy beyond the legally approved family limit, improper boiler flue installation, and unauthorized locks on the building's street entrance. While these violations were eventually resolved, they indicate past non-compliance with housing regulations. More recently, the building has faced ongoing heat and hot water issues, with a particular complaint filed and verified in October 2023.

The property has also undergone several rat inspections between 2011 and 2025, with the most recent inspections in early 2024-2025 showing compliance status, following previous rat activity reports in 2022. On a positive note, permits were issued in 2022 and 2023 for exterior work (EW), suggesting ongoing maintenance and improvements to the property. The building's maintenance history shows a mix of resolved violations and recent service requests, highlighting the importance of regular upkeep and prompt response to tenant concerns.
