Augrented Insights Report for 207 Rochester Avenue

207 Rochester Avenue is a 5-story, 9-unit residential building in Crown Heights, constructed in 1919 and currently owned by Reuven Sobel. The property has experienced ongoing maintenance challenges, particularly with rodent activity and unsanitary conditions. Most recently, in 2024-2025, there were multiple rodent-related incidents, with inspections in January and February 2025 confirming rat activity.

The building has also faced recurring mold issues, with emergency maintenance complaints about unsanitary conditions filed in December 2024 and August 2024, though HPD inspections did not find violations in August 2024. Other notable maintenance issues include electrical problems (December 2023), plumbing concerns (April 2023), and safety violations related to construction work in 2019, including issues with fire escape maintenance and inadequate safety measures. The building underwent significant construction work in 2018-2019, during which several safety violations were recorded, including failures to maintain required means of egress, inadequate guardrails, and issues with demolition operations.

Multiple permits were issued during this period for various work types, including plumbing, electrical, and alteration work. The property has maintained a clean bedbug record, with no reported infestations in the past five years according to the most recent annual filings through 2025. Despite ongoing maintenance challenges, particularly regarding rodent control and moisture issues, the building has generally addressed violations when identified, with most being marked as resolved through appropriate corrective actions and certifications.
