Augrented Insights Report for 616 East 29th Street

616 East 29th Street is a 54-unit, 6-story residential building in East Flatbush, constructed in 1931 and currently owned by Marvin Hellman. The building has experienced ongoing issues with heat and hot water service throughout 2024-2025, with multiple emergency complaints filed for both apartment-specific and whole-building outages, though some complaints were closed due to re-establishment of service during inspections. There have also been recurring issues with mold and unsanitary conditions, particularly in recent months, including violations issued in April 2025.

The building has several open violations as of November 2024, including concerns about self-closing doors in the basement and carbon monoxide detection devices, with an active DOB violation related to failure to file FISP technical reports for multiple cycles (2018-2024). The property has demonstrated some areas of concern regarding safety and maintenance compliance. Inspections in 2021 documented issues with obstructed exit passageways, and earlier violations noted concerns with garbage storage and recycling areas.

The building has a documented history of bedbug infestations, though recent reports (2022-2024) show no active cases, following three reported units in 2020-2021. The most recent rodent inspection in September 2023 passed, indicating improved pest control measures. Historical data shows a pattern of insufficient response to access issues during inspections, particularly regarding heat and hot water complaints, suggesting ongoing challenges with maintaining consistent building services. The building's violation history indicates periods of deferred maintenance, with multiple open and past violations related to various safety systems and building codes.
