Augrented Insights
AI summary · updated June 2026

The three-unit, three-story tenement building at 555 Morgan Avenue in Greenpoint, owned by Marc Weissman, has a concerning pattern of unresolved housing maintenance code violations over the past four years. All four violations, dating from 2021 through 2024, relate to the failure to file the required annual bedbug reports as mandated by the Housing Maintenance Code (HMC). These violations, all classified as "Class A" (which generally indicates they are less serious than Class B or Class C violations but still require correction), demonstrate a persistent pattern of non-compliance with city regulations intended to maintain tenant safety and comfort. The building, constructed in 1901, has been subject to these bedbug report violations for four consecutive years, with the most recent open violation recorded in April 2024 and the previous three violations dating back to March 2023, March 2022, and April 2021, respectively. While the building's age and type (an Old Law Tenement) are noted, the most significant concern for current and prospective tenants is the ongoing regulatory non-compliance related to bedbug reporting requirements.

Risk factors

What's driving this score

These are the three data points that most influenced this building's score — ranked by how much weight the model placed on each one.

Building age

Older buildings tend to have more maintenance challenges, particularly pre-war construction without modern infrastructure.

Neighborhood location

The model uses precise location as a proxy for neighborhood-level risk patterns — some blocks have systematically higher violation rates.

Minor violation rate, landlord's portfolio

Per-building rate of minor violations across the landlord's portfolio.
