Augrented Insights Report for 163 Schenectady Avenue

The 3-story, 4-unit building at 163 Schenectady Avenue in Crown Heights, owned by John Randazzo, has been actively addressing several maintenance and pest control issues since 2021. Most recently, in 2025, the building experienced multiple rodent-related complaints, with reports of both attracting conditions and visible signs of rodents between late April and May 2025. While these complaints received prompt attention from the Department of Health, and subsequent inspections passed with only minor violations, they represent an ongoing concern.

The building's maintenance history shows a pattern of unsanitary conditions, particularly regarding garbage storage and pest issues, with multiple complaints logged in 2021-2022. There are also several open violations from March 2021 regarding various safety and maintenance requirements, including lead paint hazard notification and compliance, though many other violations from that period have been appropriately addressed. The property has undergone regular inspections related to pest management, with rodent inspections in March 2025 passing successfully.

Previous maintenance issues were documented in 2021, including water leaks, wall and ceiling repair needs, and a reported broken window guard which was categorized as an emergency. Notably, the building has maintained a clean record regarding bed bugs in recent years, with all annual reporting periods showing zero infested units between 2019 and 2025. While the building has demonstrated responsiveness to various complaints and inspection requirements, the recurring nature of rodent-related issues and some persistent open violations related to safety requirements suggest ongoing monitoring of property maintenance standards.
