Augrented Insights Report for 216 Freeman Street

216 Freeman Street is a 6-story, 30-unit residential building in Greenpoint, owned by Yidel Hirsch and completed in 2017. The building has experienced several maintenance issues over the years, with the most recent concerns center around rodent activity, as evidenced by a May 2025 complaint and June 2025 inspection noting rat activity on the premises. Notably, the building has a series of open violations from 2022 in apartment 2F, including issues with window guards, plaster surfaces, and multiple pest infestations (mice and roaches), though some of these have been addressed through subsequent inspections.

The elevator system has been a recurring point of concern, with multiple complaints and violations between 2019-2024, including two identical complaints in May 2024 regarding single device service issues, though investigations found no violations at that time. The building's maintenance history shows regular bedbug reporting compliance between 2020-2025, consistently showing zero infested units. Previous violations have included emergency heat/hot water issues in 2021 and multiple complaints about unsanitary garbage storage in 2021, suggesting periodic challenges with building upkeep.

The property has undergone several inspections regarding rodent activity, most recently in 2025, though historical data from 2013 shows both rat activity and passing inspections for rodent compliance. The building's permit history shows a re-issued new building permit in July 2018, shortly after construction completion. While many previous violations have been resolved, the current open rodent-related violations and multiple historical pest-related issues suggest ongoing challenges with building maintenance and pest control.
