Augrented Insights
AI summary · updated June 2026

28 Lott Avenue is a two-story, four-unit New Law tenement building constructed in 1930, currently owned by Peter Magilta. The property has experienced recurring issues with bedbug reporting compliance, with open violations in 2023 and 2024 related to the failure to file annual bedbug reports as required under the Housing Maintenance Code. While these violations suggest ongoing challenges with meeting regulatory requirements, it's worth noting that the building's official bedbug reporting for the period from November 2020 to October 2021 indicated no infested dwelling units and successful eradication of all identified cases, though the reporting period precedes the most recent violations.

The building's historical maintenance record also shows past incidents of rodent activity, with documented rat presence in late 2014, though these issues appear to be dated relative to the current timeline. The property's maintenance history reveals a pattern of compliance-related concerns, particularly regarding bedbug reporting, with similar violations recorded in 2022 and closed violations in 2021 for the same issue. The persistent nature of these bedbug reporting violations over multiple years, including the most recent open violations in 2023 and 2024, suggests ongoing challenges with maintaining up-to-date compliance with housing maintenance requirements, though there is no evidence from the bedbug reporting system of actual infestations during the most recent reporting period.
