Augrented Insights Report for 154 Woodruff Avenue

154 Woodruff Avenue is a two-story, two-family house built in 1905 in the Flatbush neighborhood, currently owned by Thelmar Management LLC. The property has experienced multiple concerning issues over recent years, with the most significant cluster of problems occurring between 2021-2022. During this period, the building faced numerous health and safety violations including the presence of mold, pest infestations, and non-functioning smoke and carbon monoxide detectors, all of which were documented in multiple Housing Maintenance Code complaints.

The building also had multiple rodent sightings in 2021-2022, though subsequent inspections in 2019 and July 2022 passed. A troubling pattern emerged in 2022-2024 regarding unauthorized occupancy, with multiple complaints about illegal hotel room conversions. Thelmar Management received several Environmental Control Board violations, including one from October 2024 for removing a posted vacate order.

Significant safety concerns were documented in June 2022, with multiple active violations related to inadequate fire safety systems, means of egress, and light/ventilation requirements, as well as construction work completed without proper permits. While some violations from 2022 have shown as resolved, others remain active with penalties totaling up to $10,000+ depending on resolution of outstanding matters. The most recent building inspection from October 2024 resulted in an Oath Violation being served, suggesting continuing enforcement actions.
