Augrented Insights Report for 519 Blake Avenue

The 4-story, 16-unit tenement building at 519 Blake Avenue in East New York, owned by Claudette Henry, has experienced a series of significant maintenance and safety issues in recent years. An October 2024 inspection revealed multiple violations in Apartment 3C, including problems with the flushing apparatus, kitchen sink waste connection, bathtub, and bathroom faucet. The building has faced recurring heat and hot water problems, with two emergency complaints in October 2024 regarding inadequate service throughout the building and specific issues with cooking gas.

More recent complaints in January 2025 included violations related to flooring, ceiling paint, and a water leak, though some inspections were unable to gain access to verify the conditions. The building's maintenance history shows persistent infrastructure challenges, with documented violations related to the building's heating system access and safety concerns about self-closing doors in public areas. Earlier issues include a 2022 finding of extensive facade problems with cracks and loose bricks, and multiple violations for failure to file annual boiler inspection reports dating back to 2019. While recent bedbug reports for 2023-2024 show no current infestations, there was one incident documented in 2024.

Rodent inspections between 2019 and 2023 present a mixed picture, with multiple instances of rat activity noted in 2022, though the most recent inspection in 2023 passed. The building has two active violations from 2022 regarding required sidewalk sheds and facade conditions, and there have been multiple emergency complaints requiring HPD inspections in recent years. Despite the extensive documentation of these issues, many violations show as "Closed" in the system, suggesting some have been resolved. However, the pattern of recurring maintenance problems across various systems (heat, water, gas, and infrastructure) indicates ongoing challenges with building maintenance and resident comfort.
