Augrented Insights Report for 1296 Putnam Avenue

1296 Putnam Avenue, a 3-story, 3-unit residential building in Bushwick built in 1910 and currently owned by Leon Malekan, has experienced recurring maintenance issues, particularly in recent years. Most notably, in 2025, the property faced multiple plumbing-related complaints, including toilet issues and sanitary concerns related to sewage, with some of these violations still pending correction as of the latest inspection.

The building has also had ongoing concerns regarding unauthorized bedbug reporting, with open violations from 2021-2024 related to failure to file annual bedbug reports as required by HPD. In April 2022, the building was found to have several serious fire safety violations, including lack of required sprinklers, fire alarm systems, and means of egress, indicating potential hazardous conditions for occupants. These violations were assessed significant penalties but were subsequently resolved.

The building's recent history shows relatively improved pest control outcomes, with rodent inspections in 2024 and 2025 passing, though previous inspections in 2017 and 2013 noted some rodent activity. Between 2020 and 2025, the building has experienced various maintenance issues including heavy water flow, mold, and flooring problems, though many of these complaints were resolved without violations being issued. The building's history suggests ongoing maintenance challenges, particularly regarding plumbing systems and compliance with housing safety regulations, though recent inspections indicate some improved conditions.
