Augrented Insights Report for 1623 Union Street

The three-story, two-family house at 1623 Union Street in Crown Heights, owned by Daniel Nisbett, has experienced several significant maintenance issues in recent years. Most notably, between December 2023 and April 2024, the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD) identified multiple violations requiring attention, including problems with stairs, ceilings, and walls.

The building is currently under investigation for active violations related to unauthorized construction work on the third floor, with three separate Environmental Control Board (ECB) violations issued in September 2024, each carrying a $2,500 penalty. Historical records show recurring issues with the building's boiler system, with multiple complaints and violations between 2020-2024 regarding defective equipment and lack of proper permits.

More recent complaints from December 2023 included problems with stairways, ceilings, and garbage storage, some of which resulted in open violations. Despite these challenges, the building has maintained a generally acceptable record for rodent inspections, passing all inspections from 2019 through early 2025, with only one noted failure in January 2019 for "Other Reasons." The property has also faced plumbing, ventilation, and various general maintenance issues, though many of these complaints were closed without violations being issued.
