Augrented Insights Report for 401 Schenectady Avenue

401 Schenectady Avenue is a 6-story, 59-unit residential building located in Crown Heights, Brooklyn, built in 1928 and currently owned by Rafael Simon. The building has experienced recurring maintenance issues in recent years, with the most recent complaints from 2025 indicating problems with water supply, heat/hot water, and hazardous conditions including mold, pests, and flooring issues.

The elevator system has been a persistent concern, with multiple complaints about "Single Device on Property/No Alternate Service" dating back to 2022, and several related ECB violations regarding door lock monitoring and safety features. The property has documented rodent activity in recent inspections (2024-2025), and while there have been some issues with unsanitary conditions and maintenance violations, particularly in apartments 1E and 10F, there have also been numerous inspections where conditions were found to not violate housing laws.

The building's maintenance history shows a pattern of elevator-related violations, including issues with the intercom system and door mechanisms. Additionally, there are active violations regarding the failure to submit Energy Efficiency Reports (EER) for multiple years (2020-2023). The building's bedbug reporting history shows minimal infestations, with only two documented cases between 2018-2020, and none reported in recent years.
