Augrented Insights Report for 248 Arlington Avenue

The 21-unit, 4-story New Law Tenement at 248 Arlington Avenue in Cypress Hills, built in 1930 and currently owned by Ernst Pierre, has experienced several maintenance and access issues over recent years. Most notably, in mid-2025, the building had multiple complaints regarding electrical, plumbing, door/window, flooring, and unsanitary conditions (pests), though inspections were repeatedly unable to be completed due to access issues. A cluster of urgent maintenance requests from June 2025 included concerns about paint/plaster, plumbing, and door issues.

The building has also faced significant violations and complaints in 2024, particularly in apartment C3, including mold, water leaks, and pest infestations. Other violations from 2024-2025 indicate ongoing maintenance challenges, including door frame repairs, window issues in apartment B4, and various electrical and infrastructure concerns. Historical records show the building has had recurring issues with unauthorized use or conversions, though inspections were often unable to gain access.

Environmental violations from 2021 identified problems with exterior walls and electrical equipment, which were resolved with penalties. The building has consistently reported zero bedbug infestations from 2020 through 2023, and past rodent inspections in 2012 and 2017 showed "Passed" results. The repeated inability to conduct inspections and access issues for various complaints raises concerns about maintenance response protocols, though many violations have been addressed when access was granted.
