Augrented Insights Report for 189 Norman Avenue

189 Norman Avenue is a 4-story, 16-unit New Law Tenement building constructed in 1930, currently owned by Andrzej Barnowski, located in Greenpoint. The building has experienced several maintenance issues over the past two years, with the most recent being a heat/hot water emergency complaint in June 2025, though this was marked as closed. Between July and October 2024, there were multiple plumbing-related complaints involving sinks, toilets, and other fixtures, with some violations issued.

The building has also faced recurring issues with security and access systems, including multiple complaints about the bell/buzzer/intercom system in late 2024, with one inspection unable to be completed. Significant violations were documented in Apartment 10 between August and October 2024, including issues with self-closing doors, missing smoke detectors, missing carbon monoxide detectors, and bathroom ceiling problems. Two apartments (3 and 6) received violations in November 2024 regarding self-closing door issues, while a 2023 inspection revealed a potentially concerning window lintel condition on the 2nd floor.

The building's maintenance history shows consistent rodent inspection passes from 2016 through 2025, indicating no significant rodent issues. The property has a clean record regarding bedbug infestations, with numerous reporting periods showing zero affected units. Three Department of Buildings complaints were filed between 2022 and 2023 regarding potential illegal uses, though these were either no violation warranted or inspector unable to gain access.
