Augrented Insights Report for 338 Starr Street

338 Starr Street is a 3-story, 6-unit New Law tenement building in Bushwick, constructed in 1931 and currently owned by Deodat Lowtan. The building has experienced recurring heat and hot water issues throughout 2024-2025, with three Emergency Housing Maintenance Code complaints filed in November 2024, December 2024, and January 2025, though in all cases, HPD either confirmed restoration of services or was unable to gain apartment access for inspection.

The property has also faced rodent-related challenges, with multiple complaints filed between March 2024 and July 2025, including documented rat activity in 2024 and 2025, though a compliance inspection in May 2025 passed successfully. Significant maintenance issues were documented in late 2024, including problems with fire escape access and general building maintenance. Multiple violations were issued during October 2024 related to door/window problems, safety concerns, and paint/plaster issues in both public areas and individual apartments.

Notably, there are ongoing concerns regarding fire escape access and the condition of public hall areas, with some violations marked as "Open." The building has maintained a clean record in terms of bedbug infestations, with zero reports filed between 2019 and 2025. Recent inspections have shown some improvement in rodent control measures, with compliance inspections achieving passing results, though initial inspections frequently noted rat activity. The building's owners have faced enforcement actions in the past, including ECB violations related to obstructed egress and fire escape access dating back to 2020-2021, with financial penalties imposed.
