Augrented Insights Report for 987 Putnam Avenue

At 987 Putnam Avenue, a 3-story, 6-unit old law tenement building in Bedford-Stuyvesant owned by Claudette Henry, the most pressing recent concerns involve ongoing heating and pest issues. The building has experienced multiple heat and hot water outages between 2022 and 2024, with several emergency complaints indicating building-wide and apartment-specific problems. The most recent heat-related complaints were filed in September 2024 but were resolved quickly after HPD intervention.

Additionally, there have been recurring pest-related issues, with the most recent complaints in September 2024 leading to housing maintenance code violations for pest infestations in Apartment 2A, along with missing safety equipment such as smoke and carbon monoxide detectors. The building's maintenance history reveals some concerning patterns. Between 2022 and 2024, there were multiple violations requiring the filing of bedbug reports, though recent filings from 2023-2025 indicate no infested units during those periods.

A significant issue occurred in 2021 when a boiler violation resulted in a $3,125 penalty for an unregistered boiler, though records indicate this was addressed. The property has had consistent attention to rodent control, with several bait application records in 2022-2023 and passed inspections in 2023 and 2024. A recent rodent inspection in May 2025 also passed. Current records suggest some improvements in building conditions, with multiple violations from 2024 being certified as corrected, though the recurrence of heating and pest issues remains a concern.
