Augrented Insights Report for 779 Williams Avenue

The two-family house at 779 Williams Avenue, owned by Ed Hosseinipour, has experienced several significant maintenance and compliance issues since 2019. Most notably, there are current open violations from December 2023 related to an unauthorized cellar apartment setup, including an electrical range and kitchen sink, with a penalty imposed of $6,250. The building has a documented history of rodent issues, with multiple complaints between 2021-2022, though recent inspections in 2022 (most recently in October) passed.

A series of housing maintenance code violations indicate ongoing maintenance challenges, including pest infestations (roaches and mice), electrical issues, and water-related problems, particularly noted in 2021-2022. Inspection records show a pattern of unauthorized modifications and maintenance issues requiring multiple agency inspections. The Department of Buildings has documented multiple complaints regarding illegal conversions, with inspections in 2022 and 2023 though access was denied during inspections.

The property has also faced violations regarding ceiling conditions, electrical fixtures, and various apartment maintenance issues across both units. The building's plumbing and electrical systems have required attention, with some emergencies requiring prompt response in 2021. While some violations have been closed and certain conditions improved, as of the latest available data, there remain open violations and unresolved charges related to the building's condition and unauthorized modifications.
