Augrented Insights Report for 446 Franklin Avenue

The three-story, two-unit building at 446 Franklin Avenue, owned by Sherese Applewhite, has experienced several significant maintenance and pest control issues since 2020. Most notably, the property has faced ongoing rodent infestation challenges, with the most recent inspections in 2025 indicating continued rat activity despite multiple bait applications and inspections throughout 2024-2025.

The building's maintenance record shows persistent violations regarding annual bedbug report filings between 2021-2024, with four open Class A Housing Maintenance Code violations still outstanding as of 2024. More concerning are recent structural and safety issues: in June 2024, the building underwent structural monitoring, with complaints filed about falling debris and building maintenance failures, including loose bricks on the parapet wall and missing handrails at the basement entrance, resulting in significant penalties totaling $30,375 across multiple violations.

The building's permitting history shows activity between 2020-2022, with work being processed under job number 340775502, though the current status of these permits appears unresolved. Previous safety concerns included problems with scaffolding and pedestrian protection in 2021-2022, though these violations were later resolved. The building's maintenance and pest control history suggests ongoing challenges with maintaining basic habitability standards, as evidenced by the pattern of repeated violations and enforcement actions.
