Augrented Insights Report for 1705 Caton Avenue

1705 Caton Avenue is a 6-story, 56-unit New Law Tenement building constructed in 1920, currently owned by 1705 & 1715 Caton Associates. The property has experienced numerous maintenance issues in recent months, particularly regarding elevator maintenance, with multiple complaints filed between May and June 2025, though inspections found no violations. More concerning are the recurring rodent problems, with three rat sightings reported in June 2025 alone, and regular rat activity confirmed during inspections throughout 2024-2025.

The building has also faced several emergency maintenance issues recently, including heat/hot water problems affecting the entire building in June 2025, and multiple non-emergency violations involving plumbing, electrical systems, and unsanitary conditions. A significant cluster of violations was documented in December 2024 in apartment 5C, including issues with mold, water leaks, damaged windows, and problems with smoke and carbon monoxide detectors, though many of these were certified as corrected by early 2025. The building's elevator system has been a persistent concern, with multiple complaints about single-device operation and lack of alternate service, though inspections generally found no violations.

In 2022, there were several serious scaffolding and electrical issues documented, including violations related to temporary construction equipment and defective circuit breaker panels. The property has also shown periodic bedbug infestation, with one infested unit reported in 2022-2023 and another in 2023-2024. Additionally, two recent active complaints regarding Certificate of Occupancy and illegal commercial use in a residential zone were filed in 2025, requiring further investigation.
