Augrented Insights Report for 540 Bainbridge Street

540 Bainbridge Street is a 6-unit, 3-story New Law Tenement building constructed in 1907, currently owned by Oren Hakim. The property has experienced several significant issues in recent years, with the most pressing concerns occurring in September 2024, when multiple violations were issued including unsanitary conditions (pests), window frame problems, and flooring issues.

The building has an active bedbug reporting history with no documented infestations between 2021-2023, though there were previous rodent activity reports in 2018-2019, with most recent inspections showing compliance. Major violations from 2024-2025 include concerns about building safety and maintenance, with the Department of Buildings issuing violations regarding occupancy beyond certificate limits, improper fire safety measures, and unauthorized construction work. The building's systems maintenance has been called into question, with multiple active violations for failure to file external pressure inspections from 2018 to 2023.

A cluster of complaints in March 2024 related to building shaking/vibration and potential structural stability concerns, along with a report of falling debris, though most of these complaints were resolved. Historical records show consistent maintenance and compliance issues, with various unsanitary conditions reported throughout 2024, including multiple mold complaints and plumbing issues, though most were resolved through HPD interventions. The property has also faced challenges with heating/hot water systems and window maintenance in recent months, as evidenced by multiple HPD service requests and Housing Maintenance Code violations in 2024.
