Augrented Insights Report for 194 Knickerbocker Avenue

194 Knickerbocker Avenue is a 4-story, 9-unit Old Law Tenement building constructed in 1931 in Bushwick, currently owned by Jorge Colon. The building has experienced several notable maintenance and compliance issues in recent years, with the most significant occurring in December 2023 when multiple complaints were filed regarding unpermitted work, electrical wiring concerns, and plumbing work.

Despite these complaints, inspectors encountered access issues during their visits. The building has also undergone two separate self-closing door violations in December 2023, specifically concerning defective doors in Apartment 4L, which were documented as Class C violations requiring immediate attention. The property has maintained an active record of pest control compliance, having filed regular bedbug reports from 2021 to 2024 showing zero infested units during the reporting periods, indicating effective management of this common urban issue.

Additionally, rodent inspections from 2022 through 2025 have consistently passed, though there was one incident of rat activity recorded in February 2021, which was addressed with bait application. The building's maintenance history also includes two Class A violations in 2021 and 2022 related to the failure to file annual bedbug reports, though these violations have since been resolved. While the building has demonstrated regular attention to pest control and appears to have resolved various maintenance issues, the recent pattern of access-related inspection failures and multiple complaints regarding unpermitted work in December 2023 suggests ongoing maintenance challenges warranting monitoring.
