Augrented Insights Report for 15 Blake Avenue

15 Blake Avenue is a 3-story, 12-unit residential building located in Brownsville, built in 1930 and currently owned by Laurie Kefalidis. The building has experienced recurring heating system issues over the past several years, with a notable cluster of heat and hot water complaints between 2019 and 2022, including multiple instances where Housing Preservation and Development (HPD) inspectors were unable to gain access to investigate the reported problems.

Most recently, in October 2024, Class C violations were issued for pest infestations (mice and roaches) in apartment 3A, though these were certified as corrected by early November 2024. The building's maintenance history shows some infrastructure challenges, as evidenced by a 2025 illegal conversion complaint, though inspectors were unable to gain access for verification. The property has maintained a consistent record of pest management, with bedbug reports showing zero infested units in the past five reporting periods (2019-2024).

Rodent inspections between 2017 and 2019 revealed periodic rat activity, particularly in 2018 and mid-2019, but subsequent inspections showed compliance and no signs of rat activity. A paint/plaster complaint from December 2019 was resolved without violations being issued. The building's heating system has been persistently problematic, with emergency complaints regarding heat and hot water issues occurring regularly between 2019 and 2022, though many of these complaints were eventually resolved or addressed through tenant reports.
