Augrented Insights Report for 59 Grove Street

As of July 2025, 59 Grove Street in Bushwick is a 3-story, 12-unit tenement building built in 1931, currently owned by Israel Gold. The building has experienced recurring issues with heat and hot water, with multiple complaints and service requests in 2025 regarding insufficient heating systems, though access issues prevented HPD inspectors from conducting thorough evaluations. Recent maintenance concerns are notable, including multiple unresolved complaints from April 2025 related to plumbing (including slow water leaks), electrical issues (lighting), window/door conditions, and pest problems, all of which HPD inspectors were unable to evaluate due to access issues.

The building has active violations from 2024 and 2023 regarding failure to file external low-pressure inspections. Significant historical issues include multiple Housing Maintenance Code violations as of August 2024, including requirements for proper notice of safety device requirements, building registration information, and garbage receptacle maintenance. Past inspection records show a pattern of plumbing, electrical, and boiler-related complaints, particularly in 2021, with several emergency work orders issued.

The building's systems have been under scrutiny, with multiple DOB violations regarding various maintenance and safety requirements between 2021-2024, though many were eventually dismissed. While the property has passed recent rodent inspections (April 2025, October 2024, and others), it failed two compliance inspections in 2022. Bedbug reports from 2021 through 2024 show no evidence of infestations during the reporting periods, indicating successful pest management in this regard.
