Augrented Insights Report for 55 Winthrop Street

The 77-unit, 6-story building at 55 Winthrop Street in Prospect-Lefferts Gardens, owned by Necha Schwartz and constructed in 1931, has experienced several significant issues in recent years. Most notably, in 2025, there were multiple complaints and violations related to unsanitary conditions, including pests and mold, with some HPD inspections being unable to be completed.

There are currently multiple open Housing Maintenance Code complaints from June 2025 regarding ceiling paint/plaster issues and electrical wiring problems. The building has a documented history of water issues, with violations issued in May 2025 for slow leaks, and previous plumbing problems were noted in both 2021 and 2024. The property has faced recurring issues with bedbugs, as evidenced by five separate infestation reports between 2021 and 2024, though most units were successfully treated.

Elevator safety has also been a persistent concern, with multiple Department of Buildings violations between 2018 and 2025, including issues with door zone restrictors, alarm bells, and maintenance logs. The building's systems require attention, as shown by multiple violations for failed inspection filings in 2021 and 2022 regarding external low-pressure inspections, which were ultimately dismissed. Recent inspections have shown improvement in some areas, with rodent inspections in 2022 passing, though there were previous instances of rat activity noted between 2018 and 2021.
