Augrented Insights Report for 247 South 3rd Street

The 29-unit, 6-story building at 247 South 3rd Street in Williamsburg, owned by Jose Marte and constructed in 1915, has experienced persistent heat and hot water issues throughout 2024, with multiple emergency complaints filed by tenants in March and September of that year. These heating system problems were documented as affecting the entire building, though some complaints were resolved with system restoration confirmed by tenants.

The building has also faced significant elevator maintenance challenges, with numerous complaints about single-device operation and lack of alternate service between 2022-2025, resulting in multiple Environmental Control Board violations with penalties, including an active violation from September 2024 with a $1,250 penalty for being out of service. Recent inspections in 2024 revealed various maintenance issues in apartments 6A, 6D, and 6E, including problems with hot water supply, electrical systems, and mold conditions, though many of these violations were subsequently certified as corrected. The building's elevator system has been a recurring source of concern, with multiple violations related to door lock monitoring and emergency service requirements between 2021-2024, suggesting ongoing compliance issues with safety regulations.

The property has maintained a clean record regarding bedbug infestations, with zero cases reported in the past five years, and received passing marks on rodent inspections. Historical records show a pattern of maintenance violations and complaints dating back to 2020, including issues with security fencing and various building systems, though many have been resolved through inspection and certification processes. The building's management has taken steps to address violations when inspected, though there are still some active matters requiring attention, including a current Class B violation regarding a defective fire escape rail at the 3rd-story balcony.
