Augrented Insights Report for 163 Park Avenue

163 Park Avenue is a 4-story, 7-unit residential building located in Fort Greene, built in 1905 and currently owned by Davidd Tepler. The building has experienced significant maintenance issues in recent years, particularly during 2024, with multiple violation tickets and service requests related to unsanitary conditions, including pest infestations (notably in apartment 3L), plumbing problems, and issues with building infrastructure like stairs and doors. Notable violations from September 2024 included defective smoke and carbon monoxide detectors, electrical wiring problems in apartment 3L, and various building maintenance violations including a defective vestibule door latch and mailbox.

A concerning recent development is an ongoing Department of Health complaint regarding construction lead dust in common areas and apartments, filed in August 2024. The building's maintenance history shows recurring pest problems, with multiple violations related to vermin and insect infestations between 2023 and 2024, including cockroaches and mice in apartment 3L. Other maintenance issues have included defective intercom systems and various plumbing problems, though many of these complaints were eventually closed without violations being issued.

There have been some historical infrastructure maintenance issues as well, such as a December 2019 boiler violation and corresponding ECB fine regarding the heating system information sign. However, the building has maintained an active record of filing bedbug reports showing no infestations between 2021 and 2024, and rodent inspections from 2017 showed mixed results with some rat activity detected but ultimately passed compliance inspections. While many violations have been addressed and closed, the current lead dust complaint and multiple recent violations related to basic systems and safety features suggest ongoing maintenance challenges.
