Augrented Insights
AI summary · updated June 2026

The 8-unit, 4-story New Law Tenement building at 321 Eldert Street in Bushwick, built in 1914 and currently owned by Miguelina Cruz, has experienced several significant maintenance issues over the past few years. Most notably, there was a heat and hot water emergency complaint in November 2019 that could not be inspected by the Department of Housing Preservation and Development due to lack of access. The building has faced recurring annual bedbug reporting violations between 2021 and 2023, though recent filings in 2024 and July 2025 indicate none of the units were infested during those periods. The most recent rodent inspection in March 2025 passed, following a series of rat activity detections in 2024. The building's inspection history shows a mix of compliance results, with the most concerning issues being the 2019 failed inspection (other reasons) and the pattern of bedbug reporting violations. The property has maintained a consistent pattern of rodent inspections, though the results have varied between passing and failing, particularly during 2019-2024. While the recent bedbug and rodent inspections suggest some improvement in current conditions, the historical pattern of violations indicates ongoing maintenance challenges.
