Augrented Insights Report for 55 Lenox Road

55 Lenox Road is a 6-story, 60-unit residential building constructed in 1937, currently owned by Alex Cornejo. The building has experienced recurring safety and maintenance issues in recent years, with particular concerns about carbon monoxide and smoke detector functionality, as evidenced by multiple emergency complaints and violations in 2025.

The building's mechanical systems have shown persistent problems, including several boiler-related complaints and violations between 2022 and 2025, with an active ECB violation from December 2024 noting poor burner performance and defective equipment. There have also been documented issues with elevator functionality, with a significant violation recorded in May 2024 regarding complete elevator failure. Recent tenant complaints from May 2025 revealed multiple maintenance issues, including unsatisfactory conditions related to flooring, walls, electrical systems, and appliances, though HPD inspections were unable to fully assess these problems.

The building has experienced various pest control challenges over the past few years, with documented rodent infestations in multiple apartments (including 2F and 6D) and common areas, though recent rodent inspections from 2023 and 2024 have passed. While the building's management has generally maintained compliance with bedbug reporting requirements, showing minimal infestations in recent years, there have been recurring issues with garbage accumulation and ventilation systems, as evidenced by multiple housing maintenance code complaints. The property has a mixed record of responding to violations, with some citations showing prompt correction and others remaining persistent, such as the active ECB violation related to tampering with stop work orders from February 2023 with a $12,500 penalty.
