Augrented Insights Report for 442 South 5th Street

The six-story, 10-unit residential building at 442 South 5th Street in Williamsburg, owned by Aron Kapelyus and constructed in 2004, has experienced several significant maintenance issues over recent years. Most notably, there have been recurring heating and hot water problems, with complaints filed in 2023 and 2021, including one instance in 2021 that resulted in violations for inadequate hot water in apartment 1A and issues with access to the building's heating system.

The building has also been subject to multiple violations related to bedbug reporting requirements, with violations recorded in 2023, 2022, and 2021, though recent filings from 2024 show no infested units. In mid-2021, the property faced several serious construction-related violations when unauthorized work was conducted during a stop-work order, leading to multiple ECB violations for unsafe storage of materials and failure to comply with safety regulations.

These violations, while ultimately resolved, included concerns about tampering with posted stop-work orders and conducting work without proper permits. The building's elevator system was inspected in early 2024 with no violations found, and recent bedbug reporting shows consistent compliance with no reported infestations. The property has maintained a clean record with no rodent issues since a passed inspection in 2018.
