Augrented Insights Report for 240 Jefferson Street

240 Jefferson Street is a 6-unit, 3-story residential building in Bushwick, built in 1931 and currently owned by Gayther Myers. The property has experienced persistent maintenance issues over recent years, with the most notable concerns being electrical problems, plumbing issues, and evidence of rodent activity. Most recently, in June 2025, a mold complaint was investigated but found to not violate HPD housing laws.

The building has recurring electrical problems, with three "no lighting" complaints filed between 2021 and 2024, two of which required emergency responses. Multiple maintenance violations have been documented, including open violations from 2021 related to security and safety equipment in apartment 2L, such as carbon monoxide detectors, smoke detectors, and floor repairs. There are also three active violations as of 2023 related to failure to file external low-pressure inspections. The building has undergone several tenant safety inspections and faced multiple rodent control challenges, with recent inspections in 2025 showing rat activity.

Notably, there were significant compliance issues in 2019-2020 regarding hazardous conditions and exit passageways, though many of these violations were eventually resolved. The property has maintained its bedbug reporting requirements, showing zero infested units in the most recent filing period. While some maintenance issues have been promptly addressed, as evidenced by multiple "complaint verified and corrected" outcomes, the frequency and variety of complaints suggest ongoing challenges with building maintenance and resident comfort. The building's inspection history shows a mixture of resolved and ongoing violations, indicating varying levels of attention to building maintenance over time.
