Augrented Insights Report for 517 Wilson Avenue

517 Wilson Avenue is a 3-story, 6-unit New Law Tenement building constructed in 1910, currently owned by Amrom Isreal. The building has experienced significant maintenance issues in recent years, with multiple emergency complaints filed in 2025 alone, including problems with doors/windows, water leaks, walls, ceilings, and paint/plaster. Of particular concern are ongoing heat and hot water issues, with three separate complaints from April 2025 remaining open as of the current date.

The building has a documented history of water-related problems, with violations issued between 2023-2025 regarding leaks in the 3rd-floor public hall, and complaints about heavy water flow. The heat and hot water systems have been a recurring source of tenant complaints, with violations issued in 2023-2024 regarding inadequate heat supply and excessively hot water (over 130 degrees) in apartments 3R and 1L. Additional building concerns include persistent rodent activity, with multiple inspections between 2022 and 2025 showing "Rat Activity" or "Failed for Other Reasons." There are also historical violations regarding the building's security features, with issues noted about self-closing doors in the boiler room and hallway areas.

The property has undergone investigations for potential illegal conversions, with a 2024 inspection related to unauthorized partition walls in the cellar area, although access was reportedly denied. Despite these various violations and complaints, the building has maintained a clean record for bedbug infestations, with zero reported cases since 2019. The most recent Department of Buildings violation regarding failure to file annual boiler inspection reports from 2019 remains active as of the latest available data.
