Augrented Insights Report for 147 Sheffield Avenue

147 Sheffield Avenue is an 8-unit, 2-story New Law tenement building located in East New York, built in 1905 and currently owned by Ismene Speliotis. The building has experienced persistent maintenance issues over the past several years, with the most recent concerns including water-related problems in 2024 (both slow leaks and ceiling issues in apartment 2B) and an active bee/wasp infestation reported in October 2024. A notable pattern of water-related problems is evident, with multiple water leak complaints recorded in 2021-2022, including both slow and heavy flow incidents.

The building experienced significant infrastructure challenges in 2021, including an emergency heat/hot water outage affecting the entire building. Apartment 2B has been the focus of multiple violations, with ongoing issues as of 2023-2024 related to water damage, plastering, and a missing carbon monoxide detector. The property has maintained a clean record regarding bedbug infestations, with consistent reporting showing zero incidents from 2020 to present.

The Department of Buildings has issued two active violations as of June 2023 regarding failure to file 2020 external low pressure inspections. Prior issues have included concerns with electrical service, mold, and various repair needs across multiple units. While some violations have been promptly addressed and closed, several remain active, particularly those related to water damage and building systems. The building's history also shows previous good standing with rodent inspections, having passed inspections in 2011 and 2012.
