Augrented Insights Report for 50 Lenox Road

50 Lenox Road, a 6-story, 54-unit residential building constructed in 1937 and currently owned by Agnes Farkas, has experienced persistent maintenance issues in recent years, particularly concerning pest control and infrastructure maintenance. Most notably, there has been an ongoing rodent infestation problem, with recent inspections in 2025 confirming rat activity and previous bait applications throughout 2024.

The building has also faced multiple challenges with unsanitary conditions, particularly involving pests, as evidenced by multiple 311 complaints and Housing Maintenance Code violations. A significant cluster of issues was documented in September 2024 affecting apartment 5A, including water leaks, mold, and pest infestations, though these violations were subsequently certified as addressed. The property has a concerning history of elevator reliability issues, with multiple complaints between 2019 and 2024 regarding single device service and lack of alternate service, though inspections generally found no violations.

Additionally, there appears to be recurring non-compliance with energy reporting requirements, with multiple active violations related to failure to submit Energy Efficiency Reports and Benchmarking Reports from 2019 through 2024. Recent complaints from 2025 continue to indicate maintenance challenges, including plumbing issues and pest problems. While there have been some improvements, such as the certification of certain violations in 2024, the ongoing pattern of complaints suggests recurring maintenance and infrastructure challenges within the building.
