Augrented Insights Report for 1255 Gates Avenue

1255 Gates Avenue is a 6-story, 83-unit residential building in Bushwick, constructed in 2008 and currently owned by Gates Plaza Hdfc. The building has experienced recurring heat and hot water issues, with four such complaints between late 2022 and late 2024, including two emergency complaints in November 2024. There have been multiple pest-related complaints, particularly in apartments 3B and 4A, with the most recent violations for rodent (mice) and cockroach infestations in apartment 3B recorded in December 2024.

Building safety systems require attention, with open violations as of winter 2024 for missing smoke and carbon monoxide detectors in apartment 5G, and the need for proper gas leak notice posting in the public hall. The building has maintained passing rodent inspection results in 2022, 2024, and 2025. The property has open Department of Buildings (DOB) violations regarding failure to submit energy efficiency reports from 2022 to 2024, though previous DOB violations related to elevator issues have been resolved.

Historical data shows previous concerns with water temperature control (hot water exceeding 130 degrees) in apartment 6A as of late 2022. Inspections between 2019-2025 have generally shown compliance with rodent control requirements, and the building has maintained a clean record regarding bedbug infestations, with no reported cases in recent years. Recent 311 service requests indicate ongoing maintenance issues, particularly regarding heating systems, though some inspections have been unable to gain access for verification of complaints. The building's first floor has required various safety system updates and maintenance, as evidenced by multiple HPD complaints and open violations.
