Augrented Insights Report for 1185 Bedford Avenue

The four-story, six-unit building at 1185 Bedford Avenue in Bedford-Stuyvesant, owned by George Lin, has experienced several maintenance and compliance issues since 2018, with the most recent concerns primarily involving building maintenance and pest control. The property has a documented history of heating and water supply problems, with complete building heat and hot water outages reported in December 2018, and a slow water leak in 2022 that required HPD intervention. The building has faced multiple safety and maintenance violations, particularly in late 2018 when issues with fire escape safety were noted, including defective conditions and obstructed egress due to air conditioning units.

More recent environmental concerns include recurring rodent activity, though recent inspections in 2024 and 2025 have shown improvement with passed inspections and compliance. The building has consistently filed bedbug reports showing no infestation since 2019, indicating effective pest management. Significant building maintenance issues were documented between 2021-2023, including facade problems with visible damage noted in 2021 (loose bricks, cracks, and missing brownstone parts), which resulted in ECB violations and penalties that were later resolved.

The most recent complaints have involved food establishment inspections, including reports of pests and foreign objects in food, though these appear to have been addressed through proper channels. The building's inspection history shows regular monitoring for rodent control, with mixed results between 2022 and 2023, though no active violations are currently outstanding. Recent records indicate improved maintenance responsiveness, with the most current rodent inspection in May 2025 showing compliance.
