Augrented Insights Report for 884 Lafayette Avenue

The 3-story, 3-unit building at 884 Lafayette Avenue in Bedford-Stuyvesant, dating back to 1899 and currently owned by Bernard Scott, has experienced significant maintenance challenges in recent years. Most notably, there have been recurring electrical issues, with the most recent power outage complaint filed in September 2024 remaining open with violations, and several other electrical problems documented throughout 2023, including wiring issues and multiple power outages that were classified as immediate emergencies.

The building has also faced persistent sanitary concerns, particularly affecting the ground-floor apartment, including rodent infestations, mold, and pest problems evidenced by multiple HPD complaints and violations between 2022 and 2024. A concerning pattern of maintenance issues emerges from the data, with violations related to inadequate heat/hot water in 2022, various electrical problems in 2023, and ongoing pest control challenges throughout 2023-2024, despite some recent rodent inspections passing in 2025. The property is currently facing multiple active violations from a September 2024 inspection, including unsafe electrical wiring conditions, inadequate electric service to fixtures, and interior pest infestations in the ground-floor apartment.

Historical records reveal additional structural and maintenance concerns, including a 2019 ECB violation regarding the building's facade condition and other exterior maintenance issues. The building has undergone several baiting treatments for rodent control between 2023 and 2025, with some inspections showing rat activity and others passing compliance checks. While there have been some recent improvements in passing rodent inspections, the frequency and variety of maintenance issues over the past few years suggest ongoing challenges with building upkeep and resident comfort.
