Augrented Insights Report for 701 Empire Boulevard

701 Empire Boulevard is a 6-story, 65-unit residential building constructed in 1930 located in Crown Heights, currently owned by 701 Empire LLC. The building has experienced persistent heating system issues in the early months of 2025, with eight separate 311 complaints about lack of heat and hot water between January and February 2025, though most were eventually resolved or confirmed restored during HPD inspections.

The property has an extensive history of violations, with significant concerns between 2018-2021 including multiple Housing Maintenance Code violations related to fire door safety, electrical outlets, water leaks, and mandatory bedbug reporting failures. In 2019, two Environmental Control Board violations were issued regarding unauthorized cellar modifications and illegal occupancy, with penalties totaling $1,250, though these appear to have been resolved.

The building's maintenance history shows recurring rodent activity, particularly between 2019 and 2022, with the most recent inspection in February 2025 passing but showing previous rodent presence. Recent inspections for bedbugs from 2021-2024 indicate no infestations were reported, and the building has generally maintained compliance with rodent control measures since 2022, despite earlier challenges. While the building has experienced various maintenance and compliance issues over the years, recent records suggest fewer violations, though the recurring heating system problems in early 2025 represent a significant ongoing concern for resident comfort.
