Augrented Insights Report for 231 Tompkins Avenue

231 Tompkins Avenue is a 3-story, 6-unit New Law Tenement building located in Bedford-Stuyvesant, Brooklyn, built in 1931 and currently owned by Stanley Celius. The building has experienced recurring heating issues, with two HPD heat/hot water complaints in late 2024 and early 2025, though inspections showed no housing law violations. Multiple maintenance issues have been documented, including an active pest violation for bedbugs in 2024 in Apartment 3A, and water-related problems in Apartment 1B (water leak and ceiling repair issues) as of 2024.

Several emergency violations were issued in 2024 relating to lighting, electrical, window frame, and HVAC systems, though many of these have subsequently been closed. The building's environmental history shows a former mold issue in Apartment 3B, which was initially marked as a Class B violation but was later closed in 2024. Recent inspections have revealed rat activity in 2024, though initial rodent inspections in 2025 passed.

The building underwent significant maintenance work between 2019 and 2021, with multiple plumbing and electrical permits issued. A complaint regarding illegal conversion was filed in late 2022 concerning Apartment A2, resulting in an ECB violation for unpermitted construction of partitions. Despite these issues, the building has maintained compliance with bedbug reporting requirements, showing no infested units in the last three annual filings between 2022-2025. The property's record shows a mix of ongoing maintenance challenges and regular compliance with housing regulations, with many historical issues having been addressed through proper channels.
