Augrented Insights Report for 197 Adelphi Street

197 Adelphi Street in Fort Greene is a three-story, four-unit Old Law Tenement building constructed in 1925, currently owned by 197 Adelphi Street Brooklyn LLC. The building has faced significant challenges over the past few years, particularly in terms of food safety and pest control.

Between 2024 and 2025, there have been multiple Department of Health and Mental Hygiene (DOHMH) complaints involving food establishments, with at least five instances of rodent/insect/garbage issues, including a food poisoning incident involving three or more individuals in December 2024. The building experienced food safety compliance issues, receiving violations for failing to file annual bedbug reports in 2023 and 2024, though recent records from April 2024 show no infested units. The building has encountered essential service interruptions, with complaints about heat/hot water and cooking gas issues filed in March 2023, though these were reportedly resolved.

There are open violations related to obstructed fire escape egress from a third-story balcony noted in March 2023, and a potentially serious issue regarding construction work recorded in 2019, where a Partial Stop Work Order was issued due to work not conforming to approved construction documents, specifically concerning steel dunnage placement. The building has undergone rodent inspections in recent years, with bait applied in March 2023 and documented rat activity in February 2023. While the most recent bedbug report for 2022-2023 shows no infestation cases, the building's history suggests ongoing monitoring of pest control measures is warranted.
