Augrented Insights Report for 249 Stanhope Street

The 6-unit, 3-story tenement building at 249 Stanhope Street in Bushwick, owned by George Chiou and constructed in 1931, has experienced persistent maintenance and safety issues in recent years, with particular concerns regarding pest infestations and building code violations. Most notably, as of 2024 and into 2025, there are open violations related to rodent infestations in multiple apartments, with the most recent rat activity inspections occurring in April 2025.

Significant open violations include pest infestations in Apartment 1R (roaches and mice) as of April 2024, and various issues in Apartment 2L including visible mold conditions, defective self-closing doors, and concerns about window guards and unauthorized alterations. The building has also faced repeated issues with its exit passageways, with multiple Environmental Control Board violations (all currently active) regarding obstructed egress routes, particularly concerning the roof ladder access, dating back to 2020.

A power outage incident was reported and addressed in May 2024, and there is an ongoing investigation regarding lead dust from construction activities as of March 2024. The property has a documented history of failed compliance with various safety orders and building codes, including multiple instances of failing to properly address paint/plaster issues, and several complaints regarding flooring and stair conditions. While there have been some improvements noted, such as the resolution of certain paint violations in 2023, the building continues to demonstrate ongoing challenges with pest control, maintenance compliance, and safety regulations.
