Augrented Insights Report for 246 Howard Avenue

246 Howard Avenue is a 22-unit, 5-story residential building constructed in 1931 in Bedford-Stuyvesant. The property has experienced recurring maintenance issues over the past three years, with recent problems including multiple water-related complaints in 2024-2025 involving leaks and damp spots, as well as plumbing issues with toilets and sinks.

There have also been health concerns with mold reported in 2024-2025, though HPD inspections found no housing law violations in these cases. The building underwent significant scrutiny during a construction period in 2019-2020, with multiple Department of Buildings violations related to construction safety, including a worker injury and partial collapse incident in January 2019, for which penalties were imposed.

While the building has passed recent rodent inspections (most recently in June 2025), there was a period of rat activity noted in October 2021. The property has maintained compliance with bedbug reporting requirements, with no reported infestations in recent years and the most recent filing in December 2024 showing zero affected units.
