Augrented Insights Report for 237 Rutledge Street

The 237 Rutledge Street property in Williamsburg is a three-story, two-family house built in 1899, currently owned by Joel Dana. The building's recent history reveals significant regulatory scrutiny in 2022 regarding an unauthorized duplex conversion, particularly concerning basement alterations.

Three Class B violations were issued in January 2022, citing concerns about illegal stairs, unauthorized living spaces, and unpermitted cooking facilities in the basement, though these violations were ultimately closed in February 2022. The Department of Buildings (DOB) received multiple complaints in January 2022 alleging unauthorized work and illegal conversions, with inspectors reporting inability to gain access during final attempts. Additional inspection activity in January 2022 resulted in four "No Violation Warranted" determinations during a sweep.

The building has an active Environmental Control Board (ECB) violation from January 2022, related to occupancy contrary to building records, specifically regarding the unauthorized basement duplex, though this violation has been resolved with no penalties owed. Permit records show three electrical work permits issued in 2019 and 2021 (permits 02, 03, and 04 under job number 320387951), indicating some permitted work was undertaken during this period. While these permits suggest some maintenance or improvements were being conducted by the current ownership, the pattern of violations and complaints in early 2022 raises questions about the building's compliance history during that particular timeframe.
