Augrented Insights
AI summary · updated June 2026

The three-unit, three-story NEW LAW TENEMENT building at 192 St. Nicholas Avenue in Bushwick, owned by Cynthia Lin, has maintained a generally positive record since its 1931 construction. The building has consistently passed all rodent inspections over the past decade, with the most recent successful inspection occurring in March 2025, and previous inspections in April 2024, August 2022, and consistently back to October 2013 showing proper maintenance and pest control measures.

Of particular note is the building's recurring bedbug reporting requirement, which has generated four housing maintenance code violations over the past four years (2021-2024). However, the most recent bedbug report filed in May 2024 for the period November 2022 - October 2023 indicated no infested dwelling units, no eradications, and no re-infestations. This pattern of violations appears to be more administrative in nature, relating to the annual reporting process rather than indicating an ongoing infestation problem. The building has demonstrated compliance with these requirements, as evidenced by the closure of all four violations, though it is worth noting that the building's bedbug reporting cycle has required four separate notifications between 2021 and 2024.

Risk factors

What's driving this score

These are the three data points that most influenced this building's score — ranked by how much weight the model placed on each one.

Building age

Older buildings tend to have more maintenance challenges, particularly pre-war construction without modern infrastructure.

Neighborhood location

The model uses precise location as a proxy for neighborhood-level risk patterns — some blocks have systematically higher violation rates.

Individual ownership

Whether this building is registered to an individual owner rather than a corporate entity.
