Augrented Insights Report for 444 Blake Avenue

444 Blake Avenue is a 4-story, 10-unit New Law Tenement building constructed in 1930 and currently owned by Iyanu Houses LP. The building has experienced recurring maintenance issues over the past three years, with particular clusters of problems emerging in late 2023 through 2024. Most notably, there have been multiple complaints and violations related to garbage/recycling storage (5 instances), electrical issues including lighting problems (4 instances), and plumbing concerns including sink basins (3 instances).

The building has also faced basic service issues such as heat/hot water outages affecting the entire building in October 2023. As of March 2024, there are open violations related to a broken kitchen floor in Apartment 2C and lighting issues in a first-story public hall. Historical records indicate some persistent infrastructure challenges, including boiler-related complaints in 2021 and 2022, and a notable ECB violation in 2022 regarding water heater maintenance.

Though there have been rodent activity reports in 2018, 2019, and more recently in 2022, the building has consistently reported zero bedbug infestations since 2019, with all recent filings showing no affected units. The property has undergone several inspections by various agencies, with most complaints being resolved without major penalties, though multiple open violations remain as of March 2024. The building's 311 service request history shows regular patterns of maintenance issues, with the most recent complaints in July 2024 regarding unsanitary garbage/recycling storage conditions.
