Augrented Insights Report for 489 Montgomery Street

489 Montgomery Street is a 3-story, 6-unit residential building constructed in 1924 in the Crown Heights neighborhood, currently owned by Carmen Francis. The property has a mixed record of maintenance and safety compliance over the past several years. The most pressing current issue is an open Class A violation from April 2024 regarding the failure to file the annual bedbug report as required by HPD, which follows similar violations in 2022 and 2021.

The building also has several open violations from March 2020 related to Unit 2R, including defective carbon monoxide detectors, an uncapped radiator valve, broken wood flooring, missing window glass, and various security concerns such as an illegal hasp on the rear yard door and defective entrance door lock. The building has undergone regular inspections for rodent activity, with the most recent inspections in 2024 and 2025 showing no rat activity, though there was a report of rat activity in December 2017. Bedbug reporting has shown no infestations in the most recent two filing periods (2021-2022 and 2017-2018).

An Environmental Control Board violation was documented in December 2018 regarding exterior brick wall maintenance with a crack from the 3rd floor through the roof, though this appears to have been resolved. The property has also had periodic issues with waste management, including a sanitation complaint in March 2020 regarding garbage/recycling storage, which was marked as closed. While the building has demonstrated general compliance with most housing maintenance codes over the years, the recurring issues with bedbug reporting and the unresolved violations from 2020 suggest ongoing maintenance challenges that require attention.
