Augrented Insights Report for 823 Hancock Street

The 12-unit building at 823 Hancock Street in Bedford-Stuyvesant, owned by Jay Lubin, has experienced several recurring maintenance issues since 2023, with the most recent concerns including a heat/hot water problem affecting the entire building reported in May 2025, and safety inspections in 2025 related to the fire escape and smoke detector. The building has shown consistent challenges with building systems and safety features, evidenced by multiple complaints and service requests regarding doors, windows, plumbing, and safety equipment. Between 2023 and 2025, there have been several notable incidents including plumbing issues (sinks and toilets), heating system problems, and multiple door-related complaints.

A rodent sighting was reported in June 2024, and subsequent inspections in 2025 indicated rat activity, though previous inspections in 2022 and 2019 had passed. The building has undergone various inspections and corrections between 2020 and 2025, with several housing maintenance code violations identified and subsequently corrected. Previous violations from 2020 included issues with fire-retardant materials, lighting, and various door mechanisms, particularly regarding self-closing requirements.

The building's systems have been subject to multiple emergency complaints, indicating ongoing maintenance challenges. Notably, the building has maintained a clean record for bedbugs, with no reported infestations since 2018-2019, and recent Department of Buildings complaints regarding egress and gas systems were investigated with no violations found. The property has consistently filed annual bedbug reports showing zero infested units since 2019, though there have been multiple rodent-related incidents requiring attention.
