Augrented Insights Report for 166 Sumpter Street

166 Sumpter Street, a 6-unit, 3-story New Law Tenement built in 1909 in Bedford-Stuyvesant and currently owned by Bushwick Holdings Group LLC, has experienced several concerning maintenance issues over the past two years. The building has shown recurring rodent problems, with both the Department of Health and Housing Preservation and Development receiving multiple complaints between 2023-2024, though recent inspections in 2025 have passed. A significant pattern of unsanitary conditions has been documented, particularly regarding garbage/recycling storage and vermin issues.

In 2023-2024, the building had multiple safety concerns including broken window guards, fire escape issues, and electrical problems such as inadequate lighting, all of which were investigated but no violations were ultimately issued. The property has several ongoing maintenance and safety concerns that merit attention. There are active violations regarding mortar damage to the west wall at roof level (April 2024) with a $6,250 penalty, and an active boiler violation from June 2022 with a $3,125 penalty. Additionally, there are two open violations from a 2023 inspection regarding defective plaster and paint surfaces in Apartment 1R, as well as a persistent issue with the dumbwaiter opening.

The building's boiler system has shown recurring problems, as evidenced by multiple violations between 2019-2022 regarding inspection failures and defects. Recent complaints in June 2025 included issues with plumbing, ceiling plaster, electrical wiring, and various surface maintenance concerns, though these were all marked as closed within days of submission. The building's history indicates some structural and systems maintenance challenges, including a documented building shaking complaint in 2024 and various DOB violations related to external pressure inspections. While the absence of bedbug reports since 2020 suggests good pest management practices in that regard, the recurring rodent issues and various open violations related to habitability concerns warrant attention.
