Augrented Insights Report for 174 Jefferson Avenue

174 Jefferson Avenue is a 4-unit, 4-story old law tenement building located in Bedford-Stuyvesant, constructed in 1900 and currently owned by Garvin Evans. The building has experienced recurring bedbug reporting violations, with open violations in 2023 and 2024 regarding the failure to file annual bedbug reports, though a 2022 report covering the period from November 2020 to October 2021 indicated zero infested or re-infested units.

More concerning are the ongoing rodent issues, with multiple inspections in 2024-2025 showing rat activity, most recently documented in May 2025, despite some inspections showing bait application. The building underwent construction work in 2019 that resulted in several significant safety violations, including improper scaffolding practices, lack of safety bracing, and failure to provide required safety personnel, though these violations have since been resolved.

The property has maintained active compliance inspections, with a mix of passed and failed rodent inspections indicating ongoing pest control challenges. Three Environmental Control Board violations were issued in 2019 regarding non-compliance with previous summonses, and while the associated penalties were ultimately resolved, these incidents reflect historical regulatory oversight issues.
