Augrented Insights Report for 237 Jefferson Street

237 Jefferson Street is a 3-story, 5-unit Old Law Tenement building constructed in 1931, currently owned by Isacc Weiss and located in Bushwick, Brooklyn. The property has experienced significant maintenance challenges throughout 2024-2025, with multiple unresolved issues emerging in March 2025, including concerns about ventilation systems, flooring, plumbing, and mold conditions, for which HPD inspectors were unable to complete their inspections.

These complaints follow a pattern of building maintenance issues documented since 2022, when violations were recorded for roach infestations in apartments 2R and 3R, door/window problems in 3R, and various safety concerns including exposed electrical wires and a broken door saddle in the vestibule area. The building has been under ongoing scrutiny for pest management, particularly regarding rodent activity, with multiple inspections in 2025 (including March 19 showing rat activity) and consistent bait application attempts throughout early 2025.

A complaint regarding water retention/ drainage issues was filed in 2024, though inspectors were unable to gain access during their visits in 2025. Despite these challenges, the building has demonstrated compliance with bedbug reporting requirements from 2019-2024, showing no recorded infestations during these periods. The property has undergone multiple inspection attempts by various agencies, though access issues have persisted, with inspectors frequently unable to gain entry to complete their evaluations, as noted in multiple HPD service request resolutions.
