Augrented Insights Report for 283 Albany Avenue

283 Albany Avenue is a 6-story, 53-unit residential building constructed in 1941 and currently owned by Carl Zekeria. The building has experienced recurring issues with its elevator system, with multiple violations documented between 2018 and 2024, including problems with elevator maintenance, brake systems, and water in the pit, though most have been resolved through inspections and fines. The property has faced ongoing challenges with heat and hot water systems, particularly evident in 2023-2025 when multiple emergency complaints were filed regarding both apartment-specific and entire-building heating issues.

Significant recent maintenance concerns include unsanitary garbage storage (2025), plumbing problems (2024-2025), and various housing code violations, such as scalding hot water in apartment 6J (2024). Historical issues include bedbug infestations recorded in 2019-2024, with the most recent reports showing no active infestations, and rodent activity documented in inspections from 2010 and 2020. The building has undergone several inspections and received various violation notices, with documented repairs including bathroom tile corrections and painting requirements in apartments 2G and 6J.

Housing Maintenance Code complaints have shown some persistent issues with building systems, particularly regarding heating and water supply. The property has maintained compliance with bedbug reporting requirements, showing relatively low infestation rates since 2021. While the building has experienced repeated technical issues with its elevator system and heating infrastructure, most complaints have been addressed through appropriate channels, though some systemic problems appear to persist based on recurring complaints and violations.
