Augrented Insights Report for 418 Melrose Street

The four-story, eight-unit tenement building at 418 Melrose Street in Bushwick, constructed in 1931 and owned by Joel Fekete, has experienced several significant maintenance and safety issues over the past few years. Most notably, in September 2022, multiple code violations were documented concerning fire safety, including problems with self-closing doors, fire escape obstructions, and a defective fire escape ladder.

The building also faced various maintenance challenges throughout 2021-2022, including issues with heating, electrical systems, doors, and appliances, most of which required multiple inspections by the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD). Noteworthy violations included an illegal rooming unit in the cellar identified in both 2020 and 2022, though records indicate these were subsequently resolved.

More recent inspections show improvement in pest management, with the building maintaining a bedbug-free record through 2024-2025 and successfully passing multiple rodent inspections in 2023-2025, though there were periods of rat activity noted in 2021 and 2023. The building's systems have generally shown compliance with health and safety regulations in recent years, with no bedbug or significant pest infestations reported since 2024, though residents should note that some historical violations related to electrical systems, heating, and security features were recurring issues between 2021-2022.
