Augrented Insights Report for 1678 Union Street

Located in Crown Heights, the 20-unit, 4-story tenement building at 1678 Union Street was constructed in 1916 and is currently owned by Melania Cinque. The building has experienced recurring maintenance issues over recent years, with the most recent significant event occurring in January 2025 involving a heat and hot water outage that affected the entire building, though conditions were reportedly restored before inspection.

Between 2023-2024, there were multiple complaints regarding unsanitary garbage/recycling storage conditions, and prior issues included various door, window, and plumbing problems between 2020-2022, though most were resolved through inspections or corrections. Notably, the building's elevator system has been a recurrent source of concern, with multiple complaints between 2018-2022 regarding service outages and maintenance issues, resulting in several penalties totaling $3,560.00.

However, recent rodent inspections (2025) have consistently passed, and the building has maintained a clean bill of health regarding bedbug infestations in the past three reporting periods (2022-2024), with zero reported cases since 2019. The property has undergone various permitted work activities, with recent permits issued in October 2024 for unspecified work, suggesting ongoing property maintenance and improvements.
