Augrented Insights Report for 208 Himrod Street

The 6-unit, 3-story Old Law Tenement building at 208 Himrod Street in Bushwick, owned by Sol Steinlauf and constructed in 1931, has experienced persistent pest-related issues over recent years, with the most recent complaints about unsanitary conditions and pests occurring in August 2024. The building's maintenance record reveals ongoing rat activity, with multiple inspections from 2022 through 2025 consistently indicating the presence of rodents.

The property is currently facing significant violations related to fire safety and life safety systems, including defective self-closing doors in multiple apartments (1L, 1RR, 2L, 3L, and 3RR) as of October 2023, and non-functioning smoke and carbon monoxide detectors in apartment 3L. Additional concerning issues include a heat and hot water complaint for the entire building in October 2023, though no violations were found during inspection, and an active Environmental Control Board violation from June 2023 regarding obstructed fire escape access at the 2nd-floor landing (penalty: $6,250).

The building also has several outstanding violations related to the failure to file required external low-pressure inspections between 2018 and 2023, as well as a 2024 violation for not submitting the annual bedbug report. Despite these numerous violations and recurring pest issues, the property had no documented bedbug infestations during the 2020-2021 reporting period. The pattern of unsanitary conditions and safety violations, particularly regarding egress, fire safety, and pest control, suggests ongoing challenges with building maintenance and resident safety.
