Augrented Insights Report for 13 Palmetto Street

The 5-story converted dwelling at 13 Palmetto Street in Bushwick, owned by Abe Friedman, has experienced significant maintenance issues in recent months. Between October 2024 and the present, there have been multiple complaints regarding unsanitary conditions and water-related problems, including pest infestations and various types of water leaks, with all complaints resulting in HPD inspectors being unable to gain access for proper inspection. These recent service requests add to a concerning pattern of building maintenance issues, including violations for mold (October 2024) and multiple water-related complaints (heavy flow, damp spots, slow leaks) that were categorized as either emergency or non-emergency by HPD.

The building's history shows some improvements, as there have been no reported bedbug infestations since 2021, with recent filings showing zero infested units. However, rodent inspections have revealed a mix of results, with the most recent inspections in 2025 and 2024 passing, though there were failures noted in 2020 and 2017. The building's documented history shows persistent maintenance challenges over the years, including A-class violations related to refuse accumulation in 2024 and bedbug reporting failures in 2021-2022.

Notably, there have been multiple instances in 2019 and 2018 where inspectors were unable to gain access to conduct proper inspections, raising concerns about inspection cooperation. While there were two emergency water-related complaints in October 2024 that were addressed, many recent complaints have been closed without proper inspection access. The building has passed all recent rodent inspections, though historical data from 2012-2020 shows some instances of rat activity.
