Augrented Insights
AI summary · updated June 2026

126 Irving Avenue is a four-story, 8-unit New Law Tenement building constructed in 1931 and currently owned by Jean Wan. The building has a concerning pattern of rodent issues, with inspections showing alternating periods of rat activity and compliance passing results from 2022 through 2025. Notably, the most recent rodent inspection in March 2025 passed, following a March 2025 DOHMH complaint about a rat sighting that also closed with no violations found. The building's history shows consistent compliance with bedbug reporting requirements, with all annual filings from 2019 through 2025 reporting zero infested, eradicated, or re-infested units, indicating effective pest management protocols in this area. There was a complaint in August 2021 regarding an illegal curb cut or driveway modification, but this was investigated and found to have no warrant for violation. While the rodent situation appears to have improved somewhat recently, with multiple consecutive passed inspections, the building's historical pattern of rodent activity suggests this remains a persistent concern, though current inspections indicate no ongoing violations.
