Augrented Insights Report for 176 Borinquen Place

The 6-story, 26-unit tenement at 176 Borinquen Place in Williamsburg, built in 1915, is currently owned by 176 Grand Street Ext Hdfc and has experienced ongoing maintenance challenges in recent years. Most notably, the building has faced recurrent heat and hot water issues, with three documented complaints in 2024-2023 affecting either the entire building or individual apartments. A concerning cluster of problems emerged in January 2023, including heating issues, water leaks, floor problems, and reports of mold, though no violations were issued following HPD inspections.

The building's boiler system has been a persistent source of problems, with multiple defects cited between 2019 and 2022, including three active violations from 2022 for being unregistered and exhibiting various safety issues, with associated penalties totaling $4,688. An inspection from October 2024 revealed outstanding violations for failure to file required high-pressure inspections from 2018-2023, suggesting potential safety compliance issues. The building underwent significant inspections in 2022 that revealed multiple violations in Apartment 12, including issues with mold, pest infestation (roaches and mice), defective smoke and carbon monoxide detectors, and bathroom fixtures needing repair.

While recent bedbug reports from 2021-2024 show no infestations, the building's historical pest control records indicate past rodent issues, particularly in 2011, though a rodent inspection in 2018 showed compliance. The property has maintained activity records showing attention to general maintenance requests, with some issues being quickly resolved, such as a heat/hot water complaint in December 2023 and September 2024. Recent complaints regarding external conditions, including parking lot lights and debris, were investigated but found to have no violations warranting action.
