Augrented Insights Report for 1502 Dekalb Avenue

1502 Dekalb Avenue is a 6-unit, 3-story old law tenement building constructed in 1931 located in Bushwick, currently owned by Donkey R1 LLC. The property has experienced ongoing maintenance challenges, particularly regarding sanitation and pest control. Most recently, in November 2023, violations were issued for mold and wall issues, adding to a pattern of building deficiencies.

Between 2022 and 2024, multiple complaints were filed regarding heating issues, water leaks, and plumbing problems, with violations issued for heavy flow water leakage and bathtub/shower concerns. The building has also faced significant rodent control challenges, with regular inspections between 2024 and 2025 consistently showing rat activity, with multiple bait applications recorded. The property has several active violations with the Department of Buildings related to external low-pressure inspection failures from 2018 through 2021, which remain unresolved as of 2023.

Recent inspections in 2024 and 2025 revealed various housing maintenance code violations, including issues with doors, windows, plumbing, and safety equipment. Notably, violations were identified in apartments 1R and 3L regarding self-closing doors, window repairs, and fire escape concerns. The building's history shows a recurrence of maintenance issues, including a period of heating problems in early 2022 where inspectors were unable to gain access for verification. While there have been no reported bedbug infestations in recent years (2020-2024), the persistent rodent activity and recurring maintenance violations suggest ongoing challenges with building upkeep and resident comfort.
