Augrented Insights Report for 870 Macon Street

870 Macon Street is a 16-unit, 4-story New Law Tenement building constructed in 1906, currently owned by Christopher Bramwell and located in Bedford-Stuyvesant. The building has experienced recurring maintenance issues in recent years, with significant problems reported throughout 2024 including multiple rodent sightings (most recently in December 2024), inadequate heat and hot water in November 2024 affecting the entire building, and various unsanitary conditions related to pests and mold.

Notable violations include a November 2024 citation for roach infestation in apartment 2D and multiple infestations (bedbugs, mice, and roaches) documented in apartment 3C between October and November 2024. The building also experienced water-related issues, with a heavy flow leak reported in September 2024 and various other maintenance concerns including broken window sashes and ceramic tiles that required repair or replacement. The property has an active Environmental Control Board violation from June 2024 regarding the porous exterior walls at the bulkhead, which have reportedly allowed moisture to damage interior walls, though the building passed its most recent rodent inspection in December 2024.

Historical data shows a pattern of rodent activity in past years, particularly in 2009-2010 when bait was applied multiple times. The building has consistently filed Bedbug Reporting forms between 2019-2025, with no documented infestations during these periods. The most recent building permit was issued in January 2019, and records show a history of regular inspections, with the most recent rodent inspection in December 2024 resulting in a pass.
