Augrented Insights Report for 285 Driggs Avenue

The 12-unit, 8-story condominium at 285 Driggs Avenue in Greenpoint, built in 2004 and currently owned by Clementina Ruggieri, has experienced several significant maintenance and safety issues over recent years. Most notably, between 2021 and 2022, there were multiple Environmental Control Board (ECB) violations related to facade safety, including failures to maintain exterior building conditions and provide required safety measures such as netting and sidewalk sheds to protect public safety from documented unsafe facade conditions. These violations indicated problems with loose metal capping, broken stucco from balcony slabs, and corroded balcony railings.

A Technical Report filed in January 2020 had categorized the facade as unsafe, leading to these ongoing safety concerns. The building has also faced challenges with compliance inspections and work-related issues, including several complaints about work without permits and after-hours work, though inspections generally found no violations at the time. Recent 311 service requests have included health department inspections and some issues with mobile food vendors. The property has maintained a consistent record of bedbug reporting compliance, with zero infested units reported in the most recent filings from 2022 to 2024.

Rodent inspections in early 2025 revealed rat activity, which would require attention to maintain proper sanitation standards. While certain violations were resolved through dismissal or correction, including several DOB violations related to facade safety, there remains one active ECB violation as of the latest data for 2021 regarding exterior facade maintenance and rusty balcony railings. The building's recent history shows improved compliance with bedbug reporting requirements and some resolution of earlier facade-related issues, though the active ECB violation and recent rodent inspections suggest ongoing maintenance challenges. The property has shown periodic compliance with Local Law 188/17 requirements, with one recent complaint remaining active as of September 2024.
