Augrented Insights Report for 43 Sheffield Avenue

Built in 1905, 43 Sheffield Avenue is a 3-story, 6-unit New Law tenement building located in Cypress Hills and currently owned by Gila Klein. The property has experienced persistent maintenance issues, with multiple 311 service requests in January 2025 alone, including problems with heating/hot water, plumbing, pests, mold, and various appliances. Housing Maintenance Code inspections from January 2025 revealed violations related to appliances, plumbing (including toilets and sinks), pests, and heat issues.

The building has an active Environmental Control Board violation regarding occupancy without a valid certificate of occupancy, dating back to 2021, with a total balance due of $5,000 across multiple violations. Several Class B violations remain open from 2022 inspections, including inadequate hot water supply in Apt C4, water leak issues in Apt B1, and defective wood flooring in Apt B2. The property has a history of illegal conversion concerns, with multiple complaints filed between 2018 and 2025, though inspections often resulted in "Inspector Unable To Gain Access" outcomes.

There have been documented rodent issues, with the most recent inspection in January 2025 passing, but previous inspections in 2022 showed rat activity. Bedbug reports for 2021-2024 indicate no current infestation, though 6 units were reported as eradicated in 2023. The building's management has faced penalties for failure to comply with correction orders, including multiple violations in 2021-2022 related to occupancy and certificate of occupancy issues, with penalties totaling $5,000.
