Augrented Insights Report for 405 Broadway

405 Broadway is a 3-unit, 3-story residential building in Williamsburg constructed in 1920, currently owned by Sam Wurzberger. The property has experienced recurring maintenance issues, particularly with plumbing and water systems, as evidenced by a slow water leak complaint filed in September 2023 and multiple plumbing issues (involving the toilet and sink) reported in November 2022. A significant cluster of complaints in late 2022 included problems with various appliances (refrigerator, electric range), electrical systems (outlets/switches), general maintenance (cabinets), and safety concerns regarding smoke detectors and window guards, though many of these complaints were closed without violations due to lack of access for inspection.

The building's history includes several concerning safety and compliance issues leading up to 2021, particularly regarding egress and safety systems. In December 2020, multiple violations were recorded regarding emergency egress, including the removal of stairways that created severe fire hazards for rear units. Additional violations from that period involved the removal of an emergency egress stairway, construction without proper permits, and various safety code infractions including defective smoke and carbon monoxide detectors.

The building had some pest issues in late 2022, with reported rodent infestations in apartment 3R, though bedbug inspections from 2021 to present show no infestations. Recent inspection records indicate improved conditions, with no pest issues reported since 2022 and regular bedbug reporting showing zero infested units. Notably, there is currently an active Department of Buildings violation as of June 2023 regarding failure to file the 2019 external low pressure inspection.
