Augrented Insights Report for 304 Schaefer Street

The three-story, six-unit old law tenement building at 304 Schaefer Street in Bushwick, owned by Chesky Engel and constructed in 1906, has experienced recurring environmental maintenance issues over the past few years, particularly concerning mold and unsanitary conditions. Between 2023 and 2025, there were multiple documented instances of mold problems, including emergency complaints in 2025 and a September 2024 inspection that identified violations of Housing Maintenance Code (HMC) § 27-2017.3. The building has also faced pest-related challenges, with violations related to mice and roaches in Apartment 2F.

Recent maintenance concerns include ceiling plaster issues reported in early 2025, though no violations were issued following the inspection. The property has active Department of Buildings violations from 2023 regarding failure to file external low-pressure inspections for 2018 and 2019, and a historical pattern of plumbing issues, including a 2024 bathtub/shower violation in Apartment 2F. Despite these challenges, the building has maintained consistent rodent inspection compliance since 2018, with recent inspections in 2025 and 2024 passing without any noted violations.

The property has a clean record regarding bedbug infestations, with all recent reports from 2021 to 2024 showing zero cases. Notably, the building's maintenance history shows periods of proactive remediation in response to violations, such as the repair of defective floor tiles and proper addressing of mold conditions in various units. The structure has records of plumbing improvements and maintenance work being performed under proper permits, with the most recent being issued in December 2020. While the building has experienced persistent moisture-related issues, the management's response to inspections and violations suggests ongoing efforts to maintain compliance with housing codes.
