Augrented Insights Report for 717 Lexington Avenue

717 Lexington Avenue is a three-story, three-unit residential building located in Bedford-Stuyvesant, constructed in 1899 and currently owned by Winston Miller. The property has experienced persistent maintenance issues over recent years, with significant problems continuing into 2024-2025. Notable concerns include recurring heating system failures, with emergency complaints in both November 2024 and January 2024 where inspectors were unable to gain access to verify conditions.

The building has also faced substantial plumbing and electrical issues, particularly evident in 2023 with multiple complaints regarding toilets and lighting problems, all of which were classified as emergencies but remained unresolved as inspectors could not gain access. The property has documented rodent management challenges, with multiple inspections showing rat activity between 2023-2025, though most recent inspections in February 2025 resulted in passing grades. Inspection records from early 2023 revealed several violations on the second floor, including mold, water leak, and pest issues, along with multiple maintenance problems such as lighting fixture repairs and floor tile replacements.

Complicating matters, there are open violations regarding annual bedbug reporting requirements from both 2023 and 2024. The building's history shows a concerning pattern of maintenance issues, with many complaints requiring multiple attempts to gain access for inspection. Two active Environmental Control Board violations from 2020 regarding building safety features and unauthorized pool installation remain unresolved, with significant penalties totaling $18,750.
