Augrented Insights Report for 618 Chester Street

618 Chester Street is a 2-story, 4-unit New Law Tenement building located in Brownsville, built in 1930 and currently owned by Joanne Stlouis. The property has experienced recurring issues with heat and hot water systems, with multiple complaints registered in 2022, 2023, and most recently in May 2024.

The building has also faced significant maintenance challenges, particularly in apartment 2B, where multiple violations were recorded in April 2024, including issues with pest infestations (roaches and mice), various cabinet repairs, and plumbing concerns. Water-related problems have been notable, with complaints about leaks and mold documented in late 2023. The Department of Buildings records show some historical rodent activity, particularly in 2017, though recent bedbug reports from 2021 through 2025 indicate no infestations during those periods.

Two Local Law Audits were conducted in 2020-2021, with one notably listed as "Work Without Permits Watch List Compliance," though inspectors were unable to gain access during the inspection. The building's maintenance history shows a pattern of recurring issues, particularly with heating systems, which have required multiple emergency responses from the Department of Housing Preservation and Development. While some violations have been closed and repairs completed, including recent heat and hot water issues in May 2024, there remains at least one open violation from April 2024 regarding pest infestation in apartment 2B.
