Augrented Insights Report for 255 Himrod Street

The 6-unit, 3-story tenement building at 255 Himrod Street in Bushwick, owned by Asher Klein, has shown persistent maintenance and inspection issues since at least 2022. Most notably, in early 2025, there were multiple complaints regarding heat and hot water issues, with inspectors unable to gain access to apartments for verification.

The building has experienced recurring problems with pests, including multiple reports of rodent activity from 2022 through 2025, with the most recent inspections in 2025 confirming continued rat activity. There have been numerous maintenance complaints in early 2025 alone, including issues with plumbing (toilet), paint/plaster on walls and ceilings, and sanitary conditions, though many of these complaints were closed due to lack of access for inspection. The building's violation history reveals several significant concerns, including an open violation from 2021 regarding a mouse infestation in apartment 2R, and various safety-related violations from 2019-2020 concerning gas leak procedures and fire escape obstructions.

While the building has maintained a "0" count for bedbug infestation in recent annual reports (2020-2024), the persistence of other maintenance issues is notable. The property has undergone regular rodent inspections, with multiple instances of rat activity documented between 2022 and 2025, suggesting an ongoing pest management challenge. The current state of the building as of 2025 reflects a pattern of unresolved maintenance access issues, particularly regarding heat/hot water and various building maintenance concerns, even though some individual complaints have been addressed through inspections that found no violations.
