Augrented Insights Report for 879 Mother Gaston Blvd

879 Mother Gaston Blvd is a 3-story, 5-unit residential building constructed in 1930, currently owned by Roderick Jackson. The property has experienced ongoing maintenance issues, with the most recent significant cluster of problems occurring in April 2025, including multiple complaints about heat/hot water outages and pest infestations, along with appliance issues.

During 2024, the building faced various challenges including power outages, appliance problems, and pest control concerns, particularly affecting the 3rd-floor unit (Apartment 3F) which had multiple violations related to pests, refrigerator issues, and safety equipment like smoke and carbon monoxide detectors. The building's history includes concerning patterns of access issues during inspections, particularly noted in complaints from 2020 to 2022, along with several violations regarding self-closing doors and stairway maintenance. A current active violation from 2022 remains regarding defective concrete platform and wood stringers at the public hall stairs between the 2nd and 3rd floors, with a monetary penalty imposed.

The property has shown some improvement in certain areas, as evidenced by its bedbug reporting history from 2021 and 2024 showing no infested units, though it has continued to struggle with rodent activity as indicated by inspections in 2017 and 2020. A cluster of complaints in 2025 regarding heat and insect issues suggest ongoing maintenance challenges. The building's complaint history reveals a mix of resolved and currently open issues, with multiple violations requiring correction under housing maintenance codes, particularly during 2024 when several violations were issued that warrant monitoring for compliance.
