Augrented Insights Report for 208 Broadway

This four-story, 1910 Old Law tenement building in Williamsburg, owned by 1721 Putnam LLC, has experienced a pattern of recurring maintenance issues, particularly in the past year. Most recently, in 2025, there have been multiple service requests regarding plumbing problems (bats, sinks; April), pests (April), and construction lead dust (April), with HPD unable to complete inspections for several of these complaints.

The building has a documented history of heating and hot water problems, with multiple emergency complaints in December 2024, suggesting persistent system maintenance challenges. October 2024 violations noted significant issues in Apartment 1 including defective fire egress, peeling paint (including lead-based hazards), window problems, and inadequate heating, though these were certified as corrected by December 2024.

The property has also faced several complaints regarding unauthorized work in occupied multiple dwellings during 2024-2025, with some complaints resulting in Oath Violations, and there is an active DOB violation from 2019 regarding an unfiled boiler inspection. An Environmental Control Board violation from July 2024 cited excessive cracking and peeling paint in interior common areas, while a work permit complaint was documented in June 2025. The building's record shows no reported bedbug infestations from November 2022 to October 2023, and it successfully passed a rodent inspection in December 2018.
