Augrented Insights Report for 20 Albany Avenue

20 Albany Avenue is a four-story, 28-unit Old Law Tenement building located in Bedford-Stuyvesant, constructed in 1904 and currently owned by Ilsoo Kim. The building has experienced multiple recurring maintenance issues over the past year, with the most recent complaints in November 2024 involving window frames, multiple plumbing issues (primarily with bathtubs/showers), and door problems. There have been persistent plumbing problems documented throughout the year, with violations issued in October 2024.

The building has also faced challenges with mold (violations issued in October 2024), appliance issues (multiple reports regarding refrigerators), and insect infestations, including a recent bedbug report showing one infested unit as of December 2024. The property has active rodent control issues, with multiple inspections and bait applications documented between May and August 2024. Three apartments (1B and 3B) have received violations related to cockroach infestations, with 1B having confirmed through a November 2024 inspection.

Other maintenance concerns have included electrical wiring issues, peeling paint violations, and problems with garbage storage and disposal. The Department of Buildings has active violations from June 2023 regarding failure to file 2018 external low-pressure inspection records. While many of the violations have been marked as closed after appropriate certifications, the building continues to experience recurring maintenance issues that affect multiple units and common areas.
