Augrented Insights Report for 284 Powers Street

284 Powers Street is a 3-story, 6-unit residential building constructed in 1920, currently owned by Charles Schwartz and classified as an Old Law Tenement. The property has experienced recurring water-related issues over the past several years, with the most recent complaints in September 2023 regarding slow leaks and mold, though no violations were issued following HPD inspections. Historical complaints show a pattern of water leaks, with incidents reported in 2019, 2021, and 2023.

The building has faced various maintenance challenges, including an active ECB violation from 2019 regarding an illegal duplex conversion involving a pierce floor and stairs leading to the cellar from apartment 1R. Recent inspections in 2021 revealed multiple violations requiring correction, including issues with bedbug reporting, public hall encumbrances, and safety signage, though many of these were subsequently addressed and closed. The property currently shows four active DOB violations related to failure to file external low-pressure inspections between 2018-2020, and one violation from 2019 regarding boiler inspection documentation.

While the building has experienced multiple unsanitary condition complaints over the years, including reports of mold, sewage issues, and pest problems between 2019-2021, recent bedbug reporting for 2023-2024 shows no infested or re-infested units, indicating improved pest control measures. The building passed its rodent inspection in February 2023. The property has maintained an active bedbug reporting history since 2019, consistently showing zero infested and eradicated units, suggesting effective pest management practices. While the building has had various maintenance issues over the years, many historical violations and complaints have been resolved through proper channels, though some recent violations related to inspection filings remain outstanding.
