Augrented Insights Report for 426 Decatur Street

426 Decatur Street is a three-story, five-unit Old Law Tenement building located in Bedford-Stuyvesant, owned by Harold Mitchell and constructed in 1910. The building has experienced persistent maintenance challenges in recent years, with open violations related to the failure to file mandatory annual bedbug reports from 2021 through 2024 representing a notable health and safety concern.

The property has also failed to comply with external low-pressure inspection requirements in 2023, indicating possible safety equipment maintenance issues. A concerning pattern of plumbing, electrical, and pest-related complaints emerged in September 2022, including issues with window frames, electrical outlets, flooring, and water leaks, though no violations were issued following HPD inspections. Historical records from 2018 reveal significant occupancy concerns when the Department of Buildings issued violations regarding illegal conversion of second and third-story apartments into seven S.R.O units, complete with a community kitchen and bathroom facilities, though these violations were subsequently resolved.

The building has had a somewhat inconsistent record regarding rodent inspections, with the latest inspection in July 2025 showing a failure to meet requirements, while previous inspections from 2020-2024 had mostly resulted in passing grades. Earlier complaints from 2020 regarding plumbing issues, lack of heat/hot water, and door problems were closed without inspections being able to be performed due to access issues. Despite regular inspections and reporting requirements, the building's violation history suggests ongoing challenges with building maintenance compliance, particularly regarding safety equipment inspections and pest control reporting.
