Augrented Insights Report for 241 Schenck Avenue

241 Schenck Avenue is a 4-unit, 3-story tenement building located in East New York, built in 1925 and currently owned by Eugene Griffith. As of 2025, the building is facing significant documented pest control challenges, with multiple rodent-related complaints and violations.

Most recently, in April 2025, both the Department of Health and Mental Hygiene (DOHMH) and Housing Preservation and Development (HPD) responded to reports of rodent sightings and other unsanitary conditions, with HPD unable to complete inspections for mold-related complaints. The building has an active violation from 2024 regarding the failure to file annual bedbug reports, reflecting ongoing pest management issues.

Structural and maintenance concerns have been documented over the years, including a water leak emergency in 2019 affecting Apartment 1A, and historical problems with electrical systems that generated multiple Department of Buildings complaints between late 2018 and early 2019, though these violations were ultimately resolved with no penalties. The property has a concerning pattern of unsuccessful rodent inspections dating back to 2010-2012, with the most recent inspections in 2025 again showing "Rat Activity." While some maintenance issues showed temporary resolution, including various repairs completed in 2019, the recurring nature of pest-related complaints suggests ongoing challenges with building maintenance and sanitation.
