Augrented Insights Report for 642 Crown Street

642 Crown Street is a 40-unit, 4-story New Law Tenement building constructed in 1924, currently owned by Naftali Hager. The building has experienced several maintenance issues in recent years, with the most pressing concerns being heat and hot water systems. A building-wide heat and hot water outage was reported in November 2024, with restoration confirmed by HPD inspectors. Throughout 2024, there were multiple service requests that HPD was unable to inspect, including concerns about windows, doors, flooring, and unsanitary conditions related to pests.

Violations from 2023-2024 indicate ongoing maintenance challenges, including a November 2023 violation in Apartment 4I for mice infestation and a November 2023 violation in Apartment 4D regarding defective self-closing doors. The building has a documented history of pest issues, particularly between 2019-2022, with multiple bedbug infestations reported, though the most recent filings for 2023-2024 show zero infested units. A pattern of rodent activity has been observed, with baiting operations taking place throughout 2024 and passed inspections in March 2025. Additional maintenance concerns have included plumbing issues (toilet and sink problems reported in February 2024), various door/window repairs needed, and multiple infrastructure deficiencies identified through Housing Maintenance Code violations.

The building's management has generally addressed violations, as most citations show "Closed" status upon certification. As of 2025, there is an active violation from April 2023 regarding failure to file the 2022 external low-pressure inspection. The most recent inspection for illegal conversion conducted in July 2025 found no violations. Please note that while this report summarizes significant building events and conditions, it should not be interpreted as a comprehensive assessment of the building's current state or management practices.
