Augrented Insights Report for 1158 Gates Avenue

The three-story, six-unit Old Law Tenement building at 1158 Gates Avenue in Bushwick, owned by Robert Silverblatt, was constructed in 1931. The property has experienced ongoing maintenance and safety issues in recent years, with the most pressing concerns emerging in 2025 when multiple emergency violations were recorded for safety-related deficiencies including non-functioning carbon monoxide detectors and smoke detectors, as well as heat and hot water issues in individual apartments. Recent inspections in March 2025 also noted unsanitary conditions relating to pests. The building has a documented history of plumbing and water-related problems, with three separate plumbing complaints in 2023 alone, though inspectors were unable to gain access to verify these conditions.

The property has faced recurring heat and hot water problems, with multiple complaints recorded in both 2022 and 2025. Significant building violations were recorded in July 2023, including issues with fire egress, defective bathroom fixtures, and a problematic fire escape. There are also concerns about unauthorized modifications, including a violation regarding an allegedly illegal spiral staircase installation in the 1R apartment. The Department of Buildings' records show multiple illegal conversion complaints dating back to 2018, though inspectors were often unable to gain access to verify the conditions.

Environmental Control Board violations from 2021 and 2018 suggested improper occupancy of the cellar space, which was allegedly being used as an unauthorized dwelling unit with bathroom facilities. The building has passed bedbug inspections in recent years, with no reported infestations. However, there have been consistent rodent activity issues, with inspections in 2024 and 2025 showing evidence of rat activity, though earlier inspections in 2022 and 2020 had passed. Most violations and complaints have been officially closed, though one 2024 violation regarding failure to file an external low-pressure inspection remains active as of September 2024.
