Augrented Insights Report for 131 Division Avenue

131 Division Avenue is a 6-story, 19-unit residential building in Williamsburg, constructed in 1900 and currently owned by Itzchak Bixenshpan. The building has experienced several concerning maintenance issues in recent years, with the most immediate being an unsanitary condition involving pests reported in November 2024 that HPD was unable to inspect. Multiple code violations were documented in early 2024, including defective self-closing doors in apartments 3A and 4A, and serious safety concerns in apartment 1C related to non-functioning smoke and carbon monoxide detectors.

Notably, in 2023, significant fire safety violations were recorded, including modification of fire escape platforms and sealing of fire escape stairs, resulting in a fire guard requirement due to observed hazards. The building has a history of rodent-related issues, with recent activity reported in August 2024, though a subsequent inspection in September 2024 passed. Previous inspections in 2019 showed similar patterns of rat activity followed by compliance.

The property has accumulated several active Department of Buildings violations related to failure to file required inspections and reports, particularly regarding external low-pressure systems and energy benchmarking requirements. However, there is no recent evidence of bedbug infestations, with all six annual bedbug reports from 2019 to 2024 showing zero infested units. While the building has passed several rodent inspections over the years, the recurring pest complaints and recent fire safety violations suggest ongoing maintenance challenges.
