Augrented Insights Report for 56 Jewel Street

56 Jewel Street is a 14-unit, 4-story New Law Tenement building constructed in 1930 and currently owned by Andrzej Barnowski. The building has experienced recurring pest and maintenance issues over the past several years, with particular challenges related to sanitary conditions between 2018 and 2022. Multiple complaints regarding rodent infestations were reported between 2020 and 2022, with the most recent rodent inspections in 2024 and 2025 showing passed results.

The building's history also includes significant heat and hot water issues in 2021, though these were reportedly resolved quickly. Housing Maintenance Code violations have been documented, including a 2022 violation regarding missing or defective window guards in public areas, as well as multiple fire escape-related issues in 2021 that were subsequently addressed. In terms of bedbug management, the building maintained a consistent reporting history from 2019 through 2024, with the most recent reports indicating zero infested units between December 2023 and December 2024.

The property has undergone several inspections and received various violations between 2018 and 2023, including a 2023 complaint about water retention/drainage issues that resulted in an inspector unable to gain access. Despite these challenges, recent inspections have shown passing results for both rodent control and sanitation requirements. The building's overall maintenance pattern suggests ongoing management of pest control and maintenance issues, with recent years showing some improvement in compliance and resolution of violations.
