Augrented Insights Report for 594 Powell Street

The 6-unit, 3-story building at 594 Powell Street in Brownsville was constructed in 1986 and is currently owned by 594-596 Powell St LLC. The property has experienced several significant maintenance issues over the past few years, with the most recent being a heat and hot water outage in February 2025, which was resolved promptly. In August 2024, multiple violations were documented in Apartment 3B, including mold issues, water leaks, and door problems, along with reports of unaddressed pest infestations.

The building has a concerning pattern of pest-related complaints, particularly between 2022 and 2024, with several instances where HPD inspectors were unable to gain access for verification. Other notable issues include a ventilation system complaint from late 2022 that was investigated without violations being issued, and various emergency and non-emergency maintenance requests. The property underwent construction activities in 2019 that triggered multiple complaints about after-hours work and construction safety compliance, leading to several Environmental Control Board (ECB) violations regarding safety oversight and documentation requirements, though these were eventually resolved.

Three separate bedbug reporting periods from 2022-2025 show no infestations or necessary treatments. The building's maintenance record shows a mix of resolved violations and repeated complaints, particularly regarding water issues, pest control, and interior maintenance. While some repairs have been certified as completed, including roof repairs in 2024, the recurring nature of certain issues suggests ongoing maintenance challenges. The most recent bedbug reports from 2023-2025 indicate successful prevention and remediation efforts, with no observed infestations during the reporting periods.
