Augrented Insights Report for 149 Engert Avenue

The 6-unit, 3-story tenement building at 149 Engert Avenue in Greenpoint, owned by Gregory Karwowski, has experienced several notable incidents since 2018, with the most recent significant event occurring in March 2024 when a building violation was issued for continuing work despite a stop work order, resulting in a $5,000 penalty. The building has undergone multiple inspections and received violations related to safety and code compliance, including several Class B violations in 2021 concerning unauthorized locking mechanisms, obstacles in emergency exits, and encumbrances in public hallways, particularly affecting apartment 2L.

There were also repeated Administrative Code violations in 2022 and 2023 related to missing annual bedbug reports, though the building has maintained a clean bedbug infestation record throughout these periods, with zero reported cases from 2018 through 2024. The building experienced a power outage incident in late 2018 that required HPD intervention but resulted in no violations.

Two Department of Buildings complaints regarding unauthorized work were filed in 2018-2019, though access was denied during attempts to inspect. The most recent bedbug report filings for 2023-2024 show zero infested or re-infested units, suggesting effective pest management, while also demonstrating compliance with reporting requirements.
