Augrented Insights Report for 196 Kingsland Avenue

Located in Greenpoint, 196 Kingsland Avenue is a 3-story, 6-unit old-law tenement building constructed in 1931, currently owned by Manjula Mukhopadhyay. The building has experienced recurring heating and water supply issues, with multiple heat/hot water complaints affecting the entire building reported between 2020 and 2022, including three emergency complaints in March 2022 that resulted in violations related to inadequate heat and hot water supply.

Water-related problems have been persistent, with three separate water leak complaints in 2021 alone, some receiving violations during HPD inspections. Recent inspections in May 2024 revealed violations involving unauthorized encumbrances (flower pots) and a freestanding radiator in the 3rd-story public hall. The building has two active DOB violations as of 2023-2024 for failure to file required annual inspections (External Low Pressure Inspection and Boiler Inspection), indicating potential concerns with building maintenance compliance.

Historically, the property has shown concerning pest management practices, with rodent issues documented in 2012-2013, though the bedbug reporting history from 2020 through the present shows no infestations or required treatments. Recent maintenance history shows improvements, with the most recent violation from 2024 being the first in several years, and the building has maintained a consistent record of zero bedbug infestations in recent reporting periods. The property had some infrastructure concerns addressed in 2020, including electrical wiring and window frame issues, both of which were resolved without violations being issued.
