Augrented Insights Report for 178 Suydam Street

The 4-story, 8-unit old law tenement building at 178 Suydam Street in Bushwick, owned by Paul Toobian and constructed in 1936, has experienced recurring maintenance and pest problems in recent years. Between late 2022 and mid-2023, the building faced multiple housing maintenance code complaints and violations, most notably involving sanitary conditions, water leaks, and pest infestations.

These issues were documented through multiple 311 service requests, including reports of sewage problems, slow water leaks, and pest infestations, with the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD) issuing some violations during this period. More recent records from 2023-2024 show ongoing maintenance concerns, particularly in apartment 1R, where there are open violations as of April 2024 related to bedbug reporting, water leaks, ceiling repairs, and pest infestations.

The building has undergone several rodent inspections in 2023-2025, with rat activity consistently detected, though the most recent inspection in May 2025 resulted in a passing grade. Two complaints from 2020 about building stability and access issues were closed without inspection due to inability to gain access. The property has also been subject to multiple rodent activity reports in 2023-2024, though recent inspections in 2025 indicate some improvement in rodent management, with the most recent inspection showing compliance.
