Augrented Insights Report for 172 Franklin Street

172 Franklin Street is a four-story, 8-unit old law tenement building located in Greenpoint, built in 1896 and currently owned by Isabel David. The property has experienced several significant issues over recent years, with the most pressing concern being multiple active violations related to the building's low-pressure boiler system, with penalties totaling $655 for failure to file required annual inspection reports between 2018 and 2023.

The building underwent construction work in early 2020 that generated multiple complaints, including issues with construction lead dust and indoor air quality, though several inspections were unable to gain access to verify these complaints. The Department of Buildings issued several violation notices in 2023 regarding unpermitted construction work, including new wood-framed walls and plumbing/electrical modifications, with associated penalties.

The building has maintained a clean record regarding bedbug infestations, with annual reports from 2019 through the present showing zero infested units, zero eradicated units, and zero re-infested units for each reporting period. While there were air quality complaints in 2020 (related to construction dust and chemical odors), these issues appear to have been addressed, though one complaint from 2020 regarding chemical vapors remains listed as "In Progress". The property has two active violations from 2019 and 2023 related to failure to file external low-pressure inspection reports, indicating ongoing compliance issues with boiler safety requirements.
