Augrented Insights Report for 849 Dekalb Avenue

849 Dekalb Avenue is a four-story, eight-unit residential building located in Bedford-Stuyvesant, Brooklyn. Built in 1931 and currently owned by Michael Weiss, this old law tenement has undergone several significant events over the past few years, particularly related to construction work and safety compliance. Most notably, there are currently six active violations regarding failure to file required external low pressure inspections between 2018-2023, though these violations are dated September 2023.

The building experienced multiple construction-related violations in 2019-2020, including issues with scaffolding, safety documentation, and lighting during a renovation project that led to several stop work orders and three specific Environmental Control Board violations totaling $5,400 in penalties, though these were subsequently resolved. Recent inspection records show consistent compliance with rodent control measures, with all inspections passing between 2019 and 2025. The building's most recent Bedbug Report, filed in July 2025, indicates zero infestation cases for the reporting period of November 2023 to October 2024, maintaining a clean record in this regard for multiple years.

Between 2021 and 2023, the building received several Housing Maintenance Code violations, primarily related to posting requirements for safety information, including gas leak procedures, smoke detector requirements, and carbon monoxide detection device requirements, though all of these violations have been closed. Notable safety features that have been addressed include proper lighting at the front entrance, with a 2019 violation for inadequate lighting being documented and presumably resolved through subsequent compliance efforts. The building has maintained regular rodent inspections with consistent passing results, suggesting effective pest management practices are in place.
