Augrented Insights Report for 59 Kent Street

59 Kent Street is a 5-story, 36-unit commercial altered Class A building in Greenpoint, built in 1911 and currently owned by 59 Kent Corp. The building has experienced several significant maintenance issues over the past years, with notable problems occurring in early 2019 when both heating/hot water and cooking gas complaints were filed, though inspections resulted in either no violations or inability to gain access for inspection.

A comprehensive inspection in June 2019 revealed multiple repair needs across several apartments (1C, 2C, 3C, 4C, 5C), including defective plastered surfaces, painting requirements, and electrical service issues in apartment 5C, which were subsequently addressed by certified dates in 2019-2020. More recent history shows concerns about potential illegal conversions and unpermitted work, with complaints filed in 2022 and 2024, though inspections either found no violations or inspectors were unable to gain access. An Environmental Control Board violation was recorded in 2019 regarding hallway door adjustments and emergency phone repairs, which was resolved without penalty.

The building's maintenance history shows no documented bedbug infestations since 2021, with the most recent filings (2023-2024) showing zero infestation cases. The property has also received a Department of Buildings violation in 2020 related to elevator inspection reports, which was resolved in 2022. While there have been multiple maintenance issues over the years, recent years have shown improved conditions, with no significant recent violations or complaints.
