Augrented Insights Report for 505 Grand Street

The 14-unit, 6-story building at 505 Grand Street in Williamsburg, owned by Maurice Sohayegh, was completed in 2019 and has undergone several notable maintenance and compliance events. Most recently, in 2025, there were issues with the water supply system that prompted Housing Preservation and Development (HPD) involvement, though they were unable to complete their inspection. The building has maintained a clean record regarding bedbugs, with six consecutive filings between 2023-2025 indicating zero infested or re-infested units.

During its operational history, the building has experienced various maintenance and compliance issues primarily related to plumbing, pests, and construction safety. In 2022, an unsanitary condition related to pests was reported but could not be inspected by HPD. The Department of Buildings (DOB) record shows multiple construction-related complaints from 2019 to 2024, including concerns about site conditions, construction safety compliance, and unauthorized work.

Several of these complaints resulted in "Unable to Gain Access" findings during inspections, while others were resolved with no violations noted. Notably, between 2018-2019, there were multiple cases of failure to certify correction on immediately hazardous violations, though these were ultimately dismissed by the DOB. More recent complaints in 2024 and 2025 regarding food establishment conditions were handled by the Department of Health and Mental Hygiene (DOHMH) and marked as closed, though specific resolution details were not provided.
