Augrented Insights Report for 1621 Union Street

The 17-unit, 4-story, 1915 New Law Tenement building at 1621 Union Street in Crown Heights, currently owned by Mordechai Piller, has experienced recurring heat and hot water issues throughout 2025, with multiple emergency complaints filed in April 2025 and earlier reports in February 2025, though some complaints were closed due to duplicate reporting or inability to gain apartment access. The building has documented violations related to elevator maintenance (2022), various inspection failures (2023-2024), and earlier pest control issues.

While recent inspections through 2025 have passed for rodent activity, previous violations from 2022-2024 indicated problems with garbage storage, door/frame conditions, and pest infestations. Multiple violations remain active regarding unfiled pressure inspections for both internal and external systems, dating back to 2020-2023, and there were earlier issues with self-closing doors in the vestibule area. The building's maintenance record shows a pattern of various issues requiring attention from housing authorities, including multiple heat and hot water outages, flooring/stairs concerns, and pest management challenges.

However, it's noteworthy that the building has maintained an active bedbug reporting history indicating zero infestations or re-infestations from 2020 through 2025. Recent rodent inspections have consistently passed, suggesting improvement in pest management, though earlier reports indicated some rodent-related violations. The property has numerous closed violations and service requests, with many complaints being resolved through inspections, though some remain active and the building continues to experience periodic maintenance issues that require attention from various city agencies.
