Augrented Insights Report for 446 South 5th Street

This 6-story, 35-unit residential building in Williamsburg, constructed in 1915, has experienced a pattern of maintenance issues through 2025, with the most recent cluster of complaints occurring between April and May 2025, including multiple reports of water supply problems, bathtub/shower issues, mold concerns, water leaks, and ceiling paint/plaster problems. While these complaints generated multiple follow-up inspections, it's noteworthy that most were found not to violate housing laws, except for one April 2025 complaint where violations were issued.

The building has a concerning history of rodent activity, with inspections in 2024 and 2022 documenting rat presence, though the most recent 2024 inspection was marked as "failed for other reasons" regarding compliance. Additionally, there are multiple open and closed violations from late 2024 associated with apartment 52, including problems with doors, windows, and pest control that were documented between September and October 2024. The property has also faced challenges with its building systems, including boiler-related complaints in 2025 that resulted in an Oath Violation being served.

Inspection records show a potentially ongoing issue with building maintenance being addressed across various systems, while the annual bedbug reporting has consistently indicated no infestations since 2021, with the last major infestation reported in 2019 affecting all units, though subsequent reports show eradicated unit counts of zero. The building's violation history reveals some active violations as of 2025, including one from November 2019 regarding the failure to file an annual boiler inspection report, and a 2024 open violation concerning defective door hinges. The combined records suggest a building with persistent maintenance challenges, particularly related to plumbing and pest control, while also demonstrating regulatory oversight through multiple agency inspections and violation processes.
