Augrented Insights Report for 1068 Putnam Avenue

1068 Putnam Avenue is a 4-story, 8-unit residential building located in Bedford-Stuyvesant, constructed in 1910 and currently owned by Darren Singer. The building has experienced recurring maintenance issues over the past few years, with the most significant concerns in 2021 including mold and water leak violations.

Recent inspections in 2024 revealed multiple violations related to safety notices and inspection requirements, including missing carbon monoxide detector requirements and safety procedure postings. The building's low-pressure boiler system is currently facing active violations for failure to file required annual inspection reports dating back to 2018-2023, with a penalty of $3,125 imposed in September 2024. The property has a history of both construction-related issues and safety concerns, particularly during 2019-2020 when multiple stop-work orders and construction safety violations were recorded.

While the building has maintained a seemingly effective bedbug control program with no reported infestations between 2018-2024, rodent activity inspections have shown mixed results, with rat activity noted in 2019 and most recently in 2025. The building has undergone several permit applications and issuances between 2018-2020, with particular focus on plumbing and electrical works. Recent inspections and complaints suggest ongoing concerns with building maintenance and safety compliance, particularly regarding emergency procedures and inspection maintenance, though many previous violations from 2019-2020 have since been resolved.
