Augrented Insights Report for 143 Jefferson Avenue

143 Jefferson Avenue is a four-story, eight-unit old law tenement building located in Bedford-Stuyvesant, built in 1900 and currently owned by Frank Lang. The building has experienced several significant maintenance issues over recent years, most notably in late 2019 when there were multiple heat and hot water-related violations including inadequate heat supply and excessively hot water in Apartment 1, which were subsequently certified as corrected. In 2024, a violation was issued regarding a defective entrance door buzzer in the foyer.

The building underwent facade repairs in 2020-2021, during which time multiple safety violations were documented regarding scaffolding and pedestrian protection, though all these issues were eventually resolved through proper certification. The property's maintenance history shows consistent attention to pest control, with no reported bedbug infestations in the past four years (2021-2025), and recent rodent inspections (2022-2025) have consistently passed, except for an initial rat activity report from 2019. The building's heating system has been a recurring concern, with the Department of Buildings issuing violations regarding boiler and heating system access in late 2019, and a 2020 violation related to various boiler components that was marked as active with a penalty of $3,125. However, more recent inspections and bedbug reports indicate improved maintenance conditions, with no recorded pest infestations since 2019 and all recent bedbug reports showing zero infested units.

The building maintains active compliance with regular rodent inspections, with all recent inspections (2023-2025) passing. The most recent bedbug report (June 2025) shows no infestations for the previous filing period. While the building has experienced various maintenance issues over the years, recent records suggest improved conditions, though the active heating system violation remains a notable concern. The building's permit history shows regular maintenance and improvements being authorized, with the most recent permits issued in 2021 for various alterations and repairs.
