Augrented Insights Report for 689 Marcy Avenue

Located in Bedford-Stuyvesant, 689 Marcy Avenue is an 8-story, 41-unit residential building constructed in 2015 and currently owned by Ronen Benjosef. The property has experienced recurring maintenance issues, particularly with doors, as evidenced by multiple emergency and non-emergency complaints between 2024 and 2025. Most recently, there are two open door-related complaints as of June 2025.

The building has faced challenges with unsanitary conditions, including pest problems, garbage storage issues, and plumbing concerns, though many of these complaints resulted in inspections that found no housing law violations or were closed due to lack of access for inspectors. Notably, there is an active elevator violation from 2020 regarding the single-device service and several outstanding exterior wall-related violations from 2022, including failure to post required certification and submit necessary inspection reports, with associated penalties. The building's maintenance history shows a concerning pattern of rodent activity, with multiple inspections between 2023 and 2025 showing rat activity, though some inspections passed.

There have been violations regarding the compactor closet maintenance on multiple floors, with the 4th, 6th, and 7th stories being specifically mentioned in 2024 violations. While there have been no reported bedbug infestations in recent years (2022-2025), the building's overall maintenance record indicates ongoing challenges with building systems and sanitary conditions. The property has also shown a pattern of complaints that inspectors could not verify due to access issues, particularly during 2024.
