Augrented Insights Report for 653 Marcy Avenue

At 653 Marcy Avenue in Bedford-Stuyvesant, this 4-unit, 4-story residential building owned by Jacob Hirsch has experienced notable maintenance challenges since 2023. The most significant recurring issue has been with heat and hot water systems, with eight documented complaints between July 2024 and December 2024, including three emergency complaints. Violations were specifically noted in apartments 2 and 3 in August 2024 regarding inadequate hot water supply.

The building has also faced multiple appliance-related issues, including problems with electric/gas ranges in apartments 2 and 3, and significant plumbing concerns in July 2024. Health and safety matters include a pest infestation complaint in October 2023 that resulted in violations, and multiple rodent activity reports between 2023 and 2025, though recent inspections in April and December 2025 passed. The building's emergency response capabilities have come under scrutiny, with violations in August 2024 related to fire safety notices, smoke detector requirements, and gas leak procedures. While the building's bedbug reporting history (2019-2024) shows no infestations, the persistent plumbing, heating, and pest issues suggest ongoing maintenance challenges.

In addition to these recent concerns, there was a significant incident in 2021 regarding illegal conversion allegations, though this complaint was ultimately closed with the inspector unable to gain access. The property has maintained consistent compliance with bedbug reporting requirements, showing no infestations from 2019 through 2024. The most recent rodent inspection in April 2025 passed, suggesting some improvement in pest control measures. Multiple heat and hot water complaints remain unresolved through proper channels due to inability to access units for inspection.
