Augrented Insights Report for 948 Manhattan Avenue

The 8-unit, 5-story residential building at 948 Manhattan Avenue in Greenpoint, constructed in 1931, has experienced persistent maintenance challenges over recent years. Most notably, there has been an ongoing rodent infestation issue, with multiple 311 complaints and inspections indicating rat activity between 2024 and 2025, including at least 19 separate rodent-related incidents just between May 2024 and February 2025.

The building currently has open Class A violations related to fire escape maintenance and bedbug reporting requirements, as well as two Class C violations for fire escape defects and rust maintenance. Recent inspections between February and April 2025 have shown repeated rat activity despite bait application attempts. The property has also faced various maintenance issues requiring attention, including a water supply problem reported in November 2024 (HPD case), garbage storage concerns (September 2024 HPD inspection), and multiple housing maintenance code violations from October 2019 in Apartment 7 related to ceiling plaster, smoke detector repairs, and other issues.

The building's systems and services have been the subject of multiple complaints, including plumbing issues in 2019 and 2023, though some inspections found no violations at the time of visit. Two significant issues stand out from 2023-2024: an active ECB violation from March 2023 regarding facade maintenance (including missing air conditioner bracket and cracked bricks) with a penalty imposed, and two pending violations from 2019 regarding failure to file annual inspections (boiler and low pressure) with no penalties listed. The property has undergone multiple rodent control measures, as evidenced by regular bait applications and inspections throughout 2024-2025, suggesting ongoing efforts to address the pest problem.
