Augrented Insights Report for 66 Lewis Avenue

66 Lewis Avenue, a 4-story, 12-unit Old Law Tenement building located in Bedford-Stuyvesant and owned by Judah Vorchheimer, has experienced recurring maintenance issues, most notably with its heating and hot water systems. Between December 2022 and December 2024, there were multiple complaints and emergency service requests regarding heat and hot water outages affecting both individual apartments and the entire building, with the most recent complaint occurring in December 2024. The building also faced significant plumbing challenges in March 2023, with multiple immediate emergency complaints regarding water supply issues, and one complaint concerning a radiator problem.

These problems were accompanied by various housing maintenance code violations, particularly in Apartment 4, which was cited for issues including lead paint hazards, window guard deficiencies, and multiple plumbing repairs needed in March 2023. More recent inspections in 2025 revealed ongoing rodent activity, with rat activity noted in inspections from June and July 2025, though earlier inspections in 2023 and 2024 showed both passed and failed results relating to rodent control. The building has maintained a clean record for bedbugs in recent years, with the most recent bedbug report (December 2024) showing no infested or re-infested units.

Other notable issues included indoor air quality concerns in November 2023, where chemical vapors/gases/odors were reported, and a violation related to egress (though no violation was warranted upon inspection). The building's history also shows consistent compliance with bedbug reporting requirements, with all annual filings indicating no infestations. While some historical complaints from 2019-2020 related to construction and egress issues, these were resolved without any sustained violations.
