Augrented Insights Report for 482 Lafayette Avenue

The 3-unit, 3-story brownstone at 482 Lafayette Avenue in Bedford-Stuyvesant, owned by Abraham Friedrich, has undergone several significant events since its construction in 1899. Most notably, there has been ongoing rat activity evidenced by multiple compliance inspections in 2024 and 2025, with recent inspections showing persistent rodent presence.

The building underwent renovation work in 2018-2020 that generated multiple violations for work without permits, including a partial stop work order in December 2022 for unauthorized excavation work to create new steps to the basement, which incurred a $12,500 penalty that remains active. The property has maintained an active bedbug reporting compliance record from 2021 through 2024, showing zero infested units in each annual filing.

Historical violations include plumbing issues in 2003 regarding inadequate hot and cold water supply to the third-floor kitchen, and several building maintenance violations from the 1990s related to entrance lighting and door functionality. The building's recent history demonstrates a pattern of administrative challenges, including the need to file multiple annual bedbug reports (2019-2024) and issues with property maintenance that have resulted in both resolved and active violations. The most recent inspections indicate ongoing pest control challenges, as evidenced by the failed compliance inspections in 2024 and 2025.
