Augrented Insights Report for 500 Metropolitan Avenue

500 Metropolitan Avenue is a 14-story, 60-unit Class A residential building located in Williamsburg, completed in 2017 and currently owned by Meyer Chetrit. The building has experienced several maintenance issues in 2025, with eight separate complaints regarding janitorial/supervisor conditions between May and June, resulting in HPD violations that required correction by the property owner.

There were also building-wide concerns about heat/hot water and plumbing issues documented in May 2025. The building has a history of elevator-related problems, with multiple complaints logged between 2023 and 2025 regarding devices on property and service issues, though inspections generally found no violations. Significant historical events include the building's construction period in 2018-2019, during which multiple safety and compliance violations were documented, including concerns about the fire alarm system, tenant protection plans, and worker safety training.

More recent concerns include outstanding Energy Efficiency and FISP (Facade Inspection Safety Program) reporting violations from 2024. The building has maintained a relatively clean record regarding bedbug infestations, with only one documented case in 2021, and recent filings (2022-2024) show zero infested units. However, there have been repeated rodent activity indications during inspections between 2018-2024, suggesting persistent pest control challenges.
