Augrented Insights Report for 285 Quincy Street

The five-story, 20-unit Old Law Tenement building at 285 Quincy Street in Bedford-Stuyvesant, built in 1931 and currently owned by Jonathan Ismaili, has experienced recurring maintenance issues in recent years. Most notably, there has been a pattern of heating and hot water system problems, with multiple emergency complaints recorded between December 2024 and February 2025 regarding lack of heat and hot water affecting the entire building. Water-related issues have also persisted, with a slow leak complaint filed in February 2025 that HPD was unable to inspect.

The building has shown rodent activity in several inspections between 2023 and 2024, including failed inspections in April 2024 and October 2023, though a March 2025 inspection passed. Apartment 3D has multiple open violations from September 2024, including issues with plastered surfaces, window sashes, floor covering, and evidence of water leaks, while apartment 4C had similar violations recorded in April 2024. The building's boiler system has been the subject of several complaints, including a defective boiler inspection in September 2024 that resulted in an ECB violation.

The property has a history of failing to comply with energy efficiency reporting requirements, with multiple violations filed between 2019 and 2021, though these were eventually dismissed. Regular tenant safety inspections have been conducted, with the most recent showing compliance. Notably, there have been no recorded bedbug infestations in the building for the past five reporting periods (2020-2024), suggesting effective pest management practices.
