Augrented Insights
AI summary · updated June 2026

58 Greene Avenue is a 5-unit, 3-story residential building located in Fort Greene, Brooklyn, and owned by Chiaki Sugimoto. The building, constructed in 1868, has experienced several notable compliance issues in recent years. Most prominently, there have been ongoing concerns regarding lead paint hazard compliance between 2020-2022, with multiple open violations related to the failure to notify occupants and provide required documentation under Local Law 1 of 2004. These violations specifically pertained to Apartment 3L and the building's general lead paint management protocols. The property has also been subject to repeated Housing Maintenance Code violations regarding annual bedbug reporting requirements between 2022-2024, though recent bedbug reports filed in 2025 show no infestation records for the past five reporting periods, indicating this issue may now be resolved.

The building's recent history includes three failed access attempts for Local Law 188/17 compliance inspections in 2022-2024, which remain active as of October 2024. Additionally, there was a construction-related Stop Work Order issued in 2022, though this was rescinded in 2023. The Department of Buildings has processed several permit applications for the property, including an issued permit in February 2020. Importantly, the property has maintained a clean record regarding rodent inspections, with a passing result dating back to 2011. While the building has experienced various compliance challenges, recent bedbug reporting patterns suggest improved pest management, and there have been no recorded bedbug infestations or eradications in the past year.
